This way further drying will not affect the repair and you repair will be more secure. If the tone is affected, a temporary screw (or something) will hold until such time as a secure joint can be guaranteed. I have placed many a business card between a rib and board to eliminate a buzz and returned during the winter for drier conditions to apply glue. The customers were most appreciative of the forethought. No call-backs.
