Greetings, 
 
       In removing  those spring fibers from the Yamaha U3 hammer butt 
flanges, Ethyl  alcholol dissoleved and softened the glue and fiber  nicely. 
Experimenting with other dried glues I  tried:  CA, Elmer's white and yellow glues  
and none would be dissolved by ethyl.
 
What glue does Yamaha use that dissolves in alcohol like  this?
