I wouldn't try heating it with a torch (since there's wood right there), but a butane lighter (carefully) used might get it loosened up enough to turn.
Oops, Jay, sorry one more thing: again, the caffeine talking...

You and others may be wondering why I sold it if it's so sweet. I have an Epiphone MM-50 Gibson F-Style clone (discontinued) that I love and I prefer the bluegrass "bark" of the F-Style. I play in jamming groups of sometimes 10+ players, and as a novice mandolinist I can sometimes get lost in the edge.

The F-Style makes my sound go to 11. To quote Nigel Tufnel, "If you need that little extra push over the cliff... ours go to eleven."
