I always have an auxilary main tuning slide for my

This makes all those E solos much easier (just play the notes without
transposition). This is NOT cheating. In fact a long time ago when I
play for Herman Baumann in a master class, he was very appreciative of
the fact that people do this.
Hi folks,
There is no such thing as cheating when it comes to fingerings. God I
am tired of hearing this. Thank you Eldon.
