There are two ways that often work to remove old veneer. One is heat as from a heat gun or hair dryer. The other is moisture, ie : lay a damp cloth over the section you wish to remove and let it rest there until the veneer is loosene enough to remove. Often a combination of the two works best. Don't let moisture get into any other glue joints such as between the front panel and arch woods.
