I got your PM, just making the rounds. 

The phantom adaptor can be removed by removing the screws, unsoldering it.  The body > flex nec is a different story since they are melded together if I recall.  You can unravel the gooseneck part, but it is a lot of work as it is strong.   Easiest way is to use a Dremmel with a cutting wheel about 1/4 an inch back from where the body/gooseneck meet, then put the end of the end of the gooseneck material in a vice and unwind from there.  After you get the gooseneck off you can trip the end of the body.  Be very careful because the wire inside is really small.  Not 4060 small, but small and thin.
