RE: Custom Box Calls
I played his boxes at the NWTF convention. Didn't impress me any. The boxes look nice and to have so many choices available to you concerning materials is a plus. However, the sound is ordinary, nothing special at all.

RE: Custom Box Calls
Well i have a few favorites myself, but that Lamar Williams is another one that is a little off of his rocker. The prices he charges for his boxes are rediculous. I played them and they sound nice, but i walked right over to Tony Reynolds and bought a Carolina long box that sounds just as good, if not better, than anything Lamar had at a fraction of the cost. That guy believes himself to be a legend in his own time. Why else would he charge so much for an ordinary box call??

RE: Custom Box Calls
R4P, i don't know what you paid for your box in the 70's, but Lamar was selling his boxes from $250 being the cheapest all the way to a little over $500 for his long boxes. If my memory serves me, i didn't notice any special artwork, the woods did not look exotic. Just plain Jane boxes with a sweet sound and an unrealistic price tag.
