Hey Tom,
Remember this call? ;D

Tom had made this call for himself from Osage that Larry Gresser had sent him.  It sounds really good and somehow I managed to get Tom to sell it to me. ::)

Ok BigTom... don't you know the rules???  All Osage calls have to be declined by me first before you can sell them?   ROTFLMBO ROTFLMBO

I'm thinking "he" (poster above I will refrain from using his name) just got that call and is too scared to admit it.  "He's" afraid he'll get the  ban. 

I can see I have started some Osage competition here.  Going to have to tighten the belt down and not let anymore Osage calls SLIP by  *peep*

Nice work and I'm glad to see other people appreciate Osage too!!!

Mike that call was made a few years ago. If you look close you will see that there is slate inlaid in the lid. I only made a couple of them and through away half of them because they were just to hard to tune, but when they did tune they sounded great!!!
