Hi Clyde -

I agree with Wim.  I can't remember ever having much difficulty removing
a bass bridge when it had already separated that much.  Take a couple
stiff putty knives to tap into the crevice.  Will likely pop right off.

The piano:  a 1972 Baldwin Acrosonic spinet with finger rail action.
The situation:  The bass bridge is unglued for about 5" in the first
octave, causing the lowest notes to sound horrid.  The rest of the bass
notes sound okay.

You might find that when you pull the bass string off, that the whole
bridge is loose anyway. It might be held in place by the tension of the
strings. Or at most, if it isn't loose, it might come off if you pull on
it a little.
