Nice add for the collection Jeff, I have been on Marlin's list for a trumpet quite sometime myself.  Hope you roll a few with her around your neck.. *cheers*

I got mine *cheers* a few months ago and it is goin in da woods with me dis next week. Super EZ to play and da sound, well lets just say, I own near 300 yelpers and I dont wear but 2 yelpers at a time and it made my neck. Just fantastic and den some. Great caller der Jeff and njoy. Ordered me a box caller from Marlin, but ran short of money when I had da pnuemonia and bronchitis fer 6 weeks. Oh well, back on da list when da green grows again. Back in da turkey fall woods next week finally.

Fact is I wear Marlins yelper to church every Sunday. I gave some of the young kids at church yelpers and they also wear them every Sunday. I cant wait til a Sunday that the rejoicing with all the trumpets join in.

It is a nice one and just like mine - African blackwood and Amboyna burl for sure.  They sound sweet and are easy to play.  The first time I had it in the woods this summer I called a hen right up to the door of my TOYOTA  *wha*
while I was still seated in the truck!  Turkeys must prefer TOYOTA'S!  Mine always starts and never gets stuck unlike some other trucks I will not name that I have helped pull out of the mud.  *cheers*
