I've mastered single notes and have several songs down pretty good, but could never do the scale in 2nd position.
The 2 and 3 draw never sounded different just louder when I tried to bend.
I like most people I guess had trouble just with a plain 2 draw when I started out. Then I heard about the tilted embouchure and could really draw nicely on the lower holes.
Finally I realized I was somewhat bending every time I hit a 2 or a 3 draw. That seemed to be why I never had much sound difference in the 2nd position scale.
Now I really haven't mastered bending but I am hearing quite an improvement in the scale.
Is this unbending thing my imagination or has anybody else come accross this.
