I am very interested in obtaining a copy of your warmup book. How do we proceed?

[@fernlin-healy2174]

Very interesting video! What if your arm isn't long enough to get the slide extended all the way?

[@Symphorch]

That's essentially what the extra tubing (called the F valve) was made for. In many cases, it negates the need for 6th and 7th positions. But if one doesn't have the F valve, one learns make it work. Mainly by extending the fingers out.

Do you have a copy of your warmup book for sale?

[@DrBrettShuster]

You might be able to download it on his website.

Does Yamaha still make the oil?

[@counterfit5]

Yes, looks like they changed from the rubber pad applicator to a dropper. YAC1021P

It's all about getting to the point of throwing out your Arbans book. It's just not possible!!!!
