 Zebra wood Fatboy, with a African blackwood single reed.  I've been using the Vingar steel wool soak thing I read about on here, and I love the color's I'm getting out of the Zebra wood with it.

I like the call and the stain idea.  That barrel looks an awful lot like Crawdad's though, and bears a similar name. 

Edit:  Wrong choice of words on my part.  I was trying to point out this similarity but it could have been errantly perceived as an attack, which it was not intended as.  I put something on the forum that I should have said by private message and CLRiggs (who has been very gracious) has my private and public apologies for pointing this out on the forum.  In the future I would do the same, but would opt to do so in a more delicate manner and would do so in private.

Does it Aaron? I had no idea, when I made the first one my wife called it fatboy, I had no idea I was coppying crawdad. I made the first one out of pecan and was just fooling round and since then everyone wants one like that. Sorry I didn't mean to copy anyone else Idea or name.
