Amboyna Burl can be some of the most aggravating wood that I have worked with, but sometimes the end result is worth the effort (maybe :laf:). With all the nasty stuff I ran into while trying to build a few calls, I'm not sure I want to do anymore from this type of wood. Anyway, here is the final product!
