I guess I'm just too lazy to worry 'bout tuning my F slide.  I just play my
Fs and Cs in 2nd position on the Gb valve.  I tend to avoid playing in 1st
position a lot these days, yet I also use the Gb valve to avoid diving out
the 5th position.  I reckon that Gb valve is the best accessory I got for my
'bone.  Sounds freer than the F slide on my horn too.
