Right - a new main tuning slide would be my choice if the sharpness were so bad that the stock tuning slide couldn't be made to work, at all. But, I can pull enough to get in tune, even outdoors in the Alabama summertime - although at those times the slide is *very* far out.

So...it works as is, and works well enough that major surgery seems like overkill. That's why I'd like to explore small tweaks at the other end. I don't want to be able to push the main slide all the way in - I'd just like to be able to push it in a little bit.
