Jim Shelley box

[Swampmonkey]

Anyone have any experience with one of Jim Shelley's long boxes? Been looking at adding a long box to the arsenal for a while now and just happened to run a cross one of his.

Haven't used one of Jim's box calls, but I do have one of his Push-pins. Quality construction and sounds great. Good guy to deal with.

Thanks for the response. I think I'm going to give the box a try.

I have a snake wood and Holly long box from him, it's a good call for the money. His push buttons also sound nice

What does the inside of his push/pull look like? I went to his site and no pics of the inside, is it a spring, single wire or rubber band?

Spring that's adjustable and a silencer as well as a "cluck" button

Jim makes some good calls for the money..

His ceramic / cherry wood pot is another good call...

Dr. Shelley's box calls are very underated. I have bought about 20 of them over the years and would hunt any of them. And you won't beat his prices. And it is always nice to deal with a class act individual.

Jim makes an awesome sounding slate call. Really, very,very good.

I haven't had experience with his long boxes, but the glass over carbon fiber in canarywood I have from him is incredible. If a maker knows what sounds good on one call, the others generally follow suit pretty well. Also, you won't find a better individual. Great man that will spend time talking to YOU because YOU are important to him. Hard to find that these days.

Thanks for all the input guys. There is now a black limba long box headed my way!

I played with his push pin call at Nashville. It is a really good sounding call with some great features. I was going to go back by his booth to purchase one but time ran out on my stay. I with I had tried his mineral cured long box and the black limba limba long box. I have no doubt that they will sound good also.
