man power...

my proshop owner did it with his arms..

Exactly, and I don't see how a pair of vice grips wouldn't take it off. If you don't really care about it anymore, just clamp the vice grips on it really good and twist really hard. A strap wrench would be good but make sure to get a nice one cause the cheap ones rip real easy.

a strap wrench has and adjustable rubber loop for getting thigs off they work great. and wont strip the paint

take the bolt out of the marker and heat it up a bit with a blow dryer on high. The older b2k's used red loctit around the feedneck and after sitting for so long can be a pain to get off. You will need to heat it around the threading for a bit til it gets hot then try getting it off with a strap wrench and you shouldnt have any issues.
