Re: Single body eefer - sticking keys

Hmmm....seems to me that if anything is "bent", it should be repairable by staightening. A more likely cause of your sticky RH rings is that one of the posts holding it has become misaliened (bent) or that the rod itself has expanded and needs swedging to free it up. Any reputable repairperson should be able to easily perform these services and free up your rings. I have owned two single body effers for over twenty years ( a Selmer Bundy Resonite and a pro level Yamaha wood) as well as having administered a couple in my school's instrumental inventory, and sticky rings have seldom been a problem (if ever). I would seek a second opinion. At the very least, you deserve better answers and service from your present techician.
