Hi,

I really need to remove 4 screws from my piano so it can be dismantled, can someone please help. I'm desperate. To confirm the screws have unscrewed with a screwdriver, the heads are not stripped in any way at all, it's loose and ready to come out, but it won't actually extract from the wood.

Can someone please suggest what I need to do and what tool I need to remove these screws. Please see photos attached.

You may need to pull the board away, and the screws will come out as well. But you need to be careful if you succeed, and then try and knock the screws out, as the heads my catch on the wood, and splinter it. Try gently pulling the side away, and see what happens.
 
May not be screw but cams which are not aligned, or could be captive screws and there is other screws to remove.
