 Re: notes sounding the same

I will give you something specific to look at.

Just below top hole, where your left index finger sits, is a much smaller key. This key is supposed to open when you press the right index finger, which activates the linkage to the top joint.

My guess is that this key is not opening, possibly because of a spring that has slipped from where it is supposed to be. It's also possible that the key is stuck down because some sticky stuff is on the pad. Try pressing on the adjustment screw to this small key with your finger to see if the key opens. If it does, then you should take it to a repair tech...it's an easy fix but requires some knowledge.
