 :oops: I can't find a single picture of one of my calls with the guts displayed......anyw ay, I use Shell Creek's guts.  Nice sound, easy to work with, and his shipping time has been crazy fast.

 :up1:  Does that mean you're required to share several pictures next time you make one?   :clap:

Thanks for the information.  I'm sure I'll be contacting them after BigB stops by this week and shows me da goods.

The round nose to the guts in the picture sure does look similar to the Keats guts.


If they are Flyway guts, there will be raised letters in the toneboard channel stating "FLYWAY" and in the Flyway X guts, there are raised letters of "FLYWAY X."


I'll see if I can put up some pics of the guts I have on hand later on today.

I use Flyway X in my call... I have tried about a dozen diffrent guts and the ones I liked were Flyway, Kiss of Death, and Bill Saunders...

I ended up going with the Flyways ... I bore a 5/8 hole and at 1st was building the bottom of the wedge up with masking tape to get a snug fit... but now had some wedges made...

John uses Flyway X in his Shore thing honker call also but uses a GK wedge and a diffrent Reed...

I'm playing with some diffrent reeds right now in the guts and all I can say about the clear reeds that come for greg is that they suck... I asked for Mylar reeds with the last batch I got and like them better...

these guts are very easy to tune and really don't take much in the way of shaving if you don't half too... I also Tip all mine to help them raise better...

good luck and play with lots of diffrent guts then start playing with air chambers... you will find the money shot I promise...
