Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Hello this guide is to be used for sticking keys on a saxophone; however, this guide should be used as a last resort if cleaning the pad on the key did not solve the problem. Most sticking keys can be solved easily by simply cleaning the pad, but in extreme cases it may be deemed necessary to loosen the key itself.
