Title: 2 Reelfoot calls that I have completed
Post by: ben on July 28, 2013, 10:15:58 PM

Here are 2 Reelfoot calls that I have completed. Both are made from Bolivian Rosewood and both are total length of 6 1/4 in. Stainless steel reeds.

Comments welcome especially on the sound. My neighbor is blowing the calls and this is the first Reelfoot calls that he has blown and although he missed a couple notes over look that.

Click the picture for sound, excuse all the other mess that came with it, best I can do right now, hopefully better the next time.

Great job!  They look great, Ben.  Couldn't figure out how to get the video with sound to work

Edit... got the video to work... sounds durn good to me.  Chad blows pretty good, I'd say.

Those are beautiful classis Reelfoots Ben.  Both sound good but call number 2 has a really good high end or maybe it was just the caller's learning curve.   Really like then both!
