I could play a 4 octave BB scale in 8th grade, but I did not become a good player until I got to college and took my first lesson with Richard Murrow. I never took lessons in public school, and nobody ever told me I did not have a good tone.
Range is nice, but give me somebody who can impress a crowd with a whole note, and that is the player I want to listen to.
