RE: Messed up call
Sounds like you need to take it apart, something is under the reed. It could be any sort of debris. If you are afraid to take it apart try blowing in it backwards. that will sometimes free the reed up. Or it may take a sharp rap on the end you blow into. If this does not work then just pull the barrel out being careful to not pull the reed out without checking its exact position and lift the reed. I'll bet you will see some debris or dirt under the reed.
