W Scott is an unknown quantity at this point
Well, you can do the exercise Alex mentioned, but I'd encourage you to do it with a tuner. Get a simple Korg tuner off E-Bay. Then, play whole notes and scales very slowly while checking the tuner to make sure you're in tune. Sooner or later, you will notice that there is a 'spot' where you are in tune and the horn vibrates or rings. You will also hear a bright, crystal type of quality to the sound from all of the overtones. This is the sweet spot.
