They still make the bamboo model and they have a molded call? I'd like to get opinions on them. TIA

I figured the bamboo call would be a nice piece to have.

I was given one as a gift in 1988. Had it fine tuned by Mr. Mervis Saltzman himself after I got it. I used it Monday and it is as good now as it was then. I have a rice land call also. Rice land is easier to blow, but chein caille sounds better IMO.

My bad. Was talking speck call. Don't know if they still make the duck call.

They do. Two models. I asked them by email and got confirmation yesterday.

I did have a bamboo one when I was younger. It sounded good, but the bamboo split after a few seasons. It would be a nice call to have in a collection though.

That's what I'm thinking.

I was gifted one a few years back, and that is what they are. A nice gift. They don't hold up well in the elements to really hold a nice tune. So, just get it engraved and put it for show in the office.

Do youself a favor and go get a Riceland for your speck call.

I've got a freezer full of specks with my CC.

Did Mervis tell you to "stop holding that call like it's your DICK!

He told me that. He has a few good lines he uses when teaching. He told me if he is an a-hole, then people remember what he taught them. If he is nice, they forget as soon as they walk out the door.

I vaguely remember that. He sure made me feel small when I couldn't make my call sound good, then he would take it and show me how it was done. Just that experience is worth buying a chein caille call. I doubt you will be able to get the bamboo calls in the near future. It you can get one and get a calling lesson, it will be money well spent.

Cant speak about the duck call, but the Chaine Caille spec call is the best sounding one I have ever blown
Posted on 11/29/13 at 8:46 am to OTIS2
Didnt say it wasnt a good call, the Riceland is a much better sounding call and much easier to blow imo.
