Hey everyone with a Getzen, or who know about Getzens,

I was searching through the bag my horn came in and i discovered wrapped up in the pouch a tuning slide extender. I already knew about the flat whole step extender-it's on my horn. This one seems to be a flat step and a half. This extra pipe allows for some cool valve setups:

-flat half step
-flat whole step
-flat step and a half
-flat 2 steps

Is this thing standard with the CB-50, and if so, how come it's never mentioned?

ps- because of the two tunign slides for each valve (one on top one on bottom) and their obscene length, i can pull everything, stickt he extenders on the fifth valve and have a super sub contrabass horn! That sucker can go LOW!
