As a rookie, I picked up my first tuning hammer just over a year ago...and with no one to teach me aural tuning, I bought a SAT III to teach it to myself. 10 months later, after much self dedication and study, I passed the PTG tuning exam without the aid of my SAT III, with all scores in the mid to high 90's. I have not given up, and am continuing to try and improve, but feel that ETD's, when used properly can be a valuable learning tool for those that wish to learn aural tuning. John Pasterczyk.
