The fingering changes quite a bit for those exercises on page 2-4 and also 3-9.
Understood. With a little help from a white '
'correction pen'' & a fine black 'gel' pen those exercises now have ammended finger symbols in my copy.

For the Blues on 3-9 you basically substitute the 3rd finger for the 4th, sometimes the 2nd for the 3rd as in the 4th note of bar four in the D Blues.
Understood. 2 for 3 where the 3 was previoulsy followed by 4 (which has become 3).
For the '
Bass Warmup' on page 2-4, I redrafted the bars using 4 as follows
4-3 => 3-2
4-2 => 3-2
2-4 => 2-3
and for '
Bass "Stretch"' on the same page I chaged each 4 to a 3, plus a couple of 3's changed to 2 as per the Blues above.

At some point I will revise that book, but there is much to do!
And, as I recall you mentioning somewhere (Maybe on Bob Culbertson's Zoom?) the economics of publishing for the Stick are an 'interesting' challenge (small market using a range of tunings).
The changes you describe are straight forward & easy to apply. I vote you concentrate on other tuning editions for '
Tapping into Bach'.
