when is the glass call conditioned good enough?
i just bought my first glass call a custom power crystal from primos. the little conditioner stick they give me just didn' t cut it so i started useing some 100 grain medium sand paper but how do i know when enough is enough. it is making good noise but it seems like sometimes the stick kind of slides on the glass and goes silent. i feel like i have done it enough and dont want to do it too much but how do i know when i get to that point??

[X(] wish i could tell you the answer. the power cristal is supposed to be a good call. i bought my first glass call also and had the same problem i cant make mine purr . but it yelps and clucks pretty good . but i dont like it(the call) i like my old slate better. it is much easer to use

I just made a glass call. I sanded mine with medium grit sandpaper, always in the same direction. Either blow off the dust or wipe it with a paper towel or clean rag, never with your hand. Don' t ever touch your calling surface or your striker tip with your fingers or hands. After sanding, work your striker against the sanding marks, not with them. The medium sandpaper should provide enough bite to work good, if not, sand it until it sounds good to you.
