Me again. Thanks for the answers last time - solved the problem perfectly. Here's a new one. I'm playing G sharp but getting G natural. The G sharp key doesn't seem to be activating anything on the instrument. Is it me or the machine? Help!

Check something new out: pad-stick.com . Somebody came up with a real solution to the age old sax problem of sticking pads, especially G# and low C#. I bought one down at Rayburn's in Boston the other day. They work.

It could also be a weak spring or corrosion on the hinge rod causing the key to bind.
