Title: Trick or Treat?
Post by: Hawks Feather on October 13, 2008, 11:52:08 AM
I owed Jim a favor and when I found this acrylic blank I thought it might be to his liking.  It is not as long as my normal call body, but sometimes you take what you can get.  Since this is Columbus Day the post office is closed, so Jim won't get it for a few more days.  Anyway, thanks Jim.

I know your not talking about me, cause I dont remember doing you any favors. But now you got me wishing I would have :doh2:

Let me know if there's something I can do,  next time. :biggrin:

But I'm sure Jim's gonna like it. Now tell us who he is and what he did to deserve that bad boy.

Iahntr,
It is a little stout and should hold up to about anything.

Well it musta been a treat cause this thing showed up in my PO box today :biggrin:
Or was that the trick?  :huh:

:laf:

I dont know what I did to deserve it, but I'm glad I did it. And she's a real beaut Jerry. To be honest with you when I opened it, I had an uncontrollable urge to lick it. :doh2: Seriously...it looks as smooth as candy, the way those colors flow :eyebrownod:

You didnt owe me anything for whatever but I certainly appreciate it.  :wink:

Jerry, you sent this with two reeds, as mentioned and I figured I'd get back to ya. After swapping them out and trying each one, I'm settling on the thinner one.

I love the raspy, throaty sound this bad boy makes. :biggrin:
I slid the reed back leaving just a few thousands of the air channel exposed under it as shown in the pic below and then began to tear it up. :eyebrownod:

Jim,

I may have to just send you all my calls so you can make the sound files for them.   :biggrin:  I go back and forth between liking one and then the other, so I just sent you both of them to let you decide.
