S&S D Soundboard removal

[Horace Greeley]

Hi, Scott,

By that time, they were experimenting with different glues.  It's hard to 
tell what might have been used...could have been pretty much anything short 
of epoxy.

Any excess or drippings still around anyplace that might give some 
indication (from color/etc)?

I'll see if I still have any notes that might be of help.  Also, check with 
Del Fandrich.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Best.

Horace
