@Simon, coupon code? yes it’s working. let me know if you’re still having issues with it.

@bc, I use your 3rd example but add right hand fingers to sharpen as needed…simply using 2,3,G# will get you that A but very flat

@Simon, you’re in good shape if you now can at least hit it.
fortunately the melody in Sound Of Silence is a perfect vehicle to practice this…
