Well I talked to Scotty some time back about doing me a call in Ceramic. Scotty said he wanted to do something unique and I told him to go for it!
He kept whining and telling me how this and that wasn't working. I'd about gave up and told him to build me one in slate when I got a PM and said my call was done.
He asked me to call him and he played it. Sounded great over the phone and then he shipped her out.
Came to the mailbox and opened it up and wow there it was.
Here's Scotty's first ceramic call with a rosewood and bloodwood striker. I asked Scotty to build me one in Bloodwood since I didn't have one and I really like Scotty's strikers!
Buddy thank you for building an awesome looking and sounding call. I really appreciate the OsageRoost on the striker! That means a lot to me!!!

I chuckled when I read about Scotty whining about this and that not working, a few years back I ordered a box call from Scotty. He had posted some pictures of some box calls with spalted walnut, and I wanted one, especially when I heard the sound file. As most box call makers know, spalted woods can be trouble, and after several phone calls and Scotty telling me it wasn't going to work, he fgured out a way. It was well worth the wait for me and Scotty's gray hairs,lol. Scotty is very meticulous and the box call was a fine example of the sweetest sounding southern hen I have ever played.
Congrats to you both!! *up*
