I agree that the hot-melt glue is difficult to remove, but in my case it all came off OK as long as I was careful. I didn't melt it, I picked it off with needle-nose pliers and fingernails.

My concern is the complex partitioning scheme that the Empeg uses, I wouldn't want to screw it up and get it wrong if I did it manually. That's why I prefer to do the drive swapping and use Mike's tool for the job.
