Since the tuner dial was going to need to be lubricated I thought I better do that and the rubber tuner cap mounts.  Following the instructions in the Tech Section I got to step 3c and went to take the band select bracket off but found it is connected with braided wire soldered to the metal frame behind it...one on each side of the bracket   Icon_eek
What's up with that?  I can't get that bracket off without unsoldering or cutting the braid.  That wasn't factory was it?
