Here's a new cherry crystal call I spun up yesterday. Very pleased with the result -- clear high pitched front end with a hard break into a raspy, lower back end. I've had some ask me about my soundboards -- I call it "Zombiecam" It's three shades of green spray paint spattered on the soundboard then sealed with poly.

I'll try to post a sound file
Beautiful looking call.
I made a sound file, running the call with a Harold Fowler one-piece Persimmon striker. However, when I tried to post the file, it was too large. I kept trimming it down until it was 7 seconds, which was still too large of a file to post under the 650kb limit, so I gave up. If someone has a trick or secret on how to compress wav files, I'll post a sound file.
Finally figured out how to upload sound file to a Soundcloud -- click link below. The first call series is with my Osage striker, the second series is with a Harold Fowler one-piece Persimmon, and the final is with a Bill Lyman striker (not sure of the wood.) Please don't judge the call by the caller. I make a good call, but I'm an average caller, at best.
