 Re: G key sticking when playing G#

RH index-finger?

And this doesn't happen normally for the transition from F# to G?

The only thing I can think of is that you have a thick piece of cork on top of the G# vent, and that the F#-G# connection screw is somehow "engaging", a bit like two cogwheels engage and lock together.

Take a closeup look at the cork on the G# vent, and see if there is a hole that could be engaging the adjustment screw. If that is the propblem, replacing that cork is a 5 min. job for any technician.
