.Gentlemen AND ladies, This is the goofy piano that Joe refers to. I bought one once (1980?) just cause it was so wierd. Some have vinyl sides and yes it is a puzzle the first time around. Now Clay , back to your dilemma -- I really think the fall strip in this piano does move into a slot in the side and then lifts out. My advice and approach in cases like this is to keep investigating, look for any hidden screws , move , twist and contort --- go out to the car , come back do whatever but I would not leave the piano until it was out or it was bedtime . Yours , not theirs . But that's just me. I'll check the Wurlie graveyard tomorrow.
