Stubborn fallboard

I refinished and restrung a Wurlitzer Butterfly Grand when I lived in
Georgia.  If I remember correctly it was in a really weird place and I was
able to strengthen the spring by bending it.  I can't remember exactly where
it was (7 years ago), but try underneath the stretcher bar on the left or
thereabouts. You may have to stick your head inside the action cavity with a
flashlight.  Hope it helps.
