the bass section. Will the ca glue help here, or is the instrument beyond

 Roy:

What do you have to lose by trying the CA treatment?  Be sure you ventilate 
well and tip the piano on its back.  Try thin and/or medium CA.  I'll bet 
it'll work better than any previous chemical treatments that are/were 
available.  Let us know if it worked out for you.
