Removing the back of the guitar can be extremely messy sometimes.

If it has binding, you can use a small router to remove that binding, then using a separation knife slice through the join and work that all the way around.

Sometimes you need heat, sometimes you need steam.

At points where you come upon the neck and tail blocks, you will need more patience

Majority of the time, cosmetic work is required when refitting the back on.
