Work with this drone for good intonation. Do your best to match the pitch as close as possible. The 7 slide positions are general locations - but to play well in tune, you will need to adjust the slide up or down to match these pitches.
Work for quick slide movement and coordinated tongue. Practice slowly before you take it fast - and use your tuner to make sure you are getting to the right pitch.
