Well, i've decided not to sell my old sax. Well, the 1 key on the right hand ( i don't know what this is called, F key?) the pad is about 1mm away from sealing the hole. Does any1 know what's the problem, now when i'm playing it, i need to press HARD on the key until it seals the hole. What should I do?

Hmm...

Are you the ASR off Saxophone Forum? Or the one off SoTW? If you're off SF, you have a Yamaha 62 II, if you're off SOTW, you have a Fujiyama (or sumtin like that). If you have the Yamaha, take it to a good tech and he'll fix it. If you have the Fujiyama, junk it. It was bound to happen, no shed tears, no burial, no cremation Laughing

I'm the one from Saxophone forum. Well i'm actually talking about this other horn other than the Yamaha 62. It's not worth alot or anything like that, but it means alot to me.

Also The ASR from Saxontheweb like me has a FUJIYAMA alto too. We bought it together. I really would like to keep this horn and be able to have it playable. I love this horn personaly because the PERSONAL engraving i gave to it, my name in handwriting and 5 lilies on it and the sound of the horn. (the sax sounds good, similar to the sound of a student model jupiter)
That's why i want to keep it.

fixed problem, the key next to it wasn't in line with it so i just adjusted it until the two keys were just right.
