Your bond, if done properly, will be stronger than the surrounding wood.

From what I gather, most glues are like that. In any case, I will look into this more, as the issue relates to the wood frame’s connection to the sound board on the bass side. It’s actually a pretty cool effect, but I’d prefer it on a piano of... lesser value.

It's the glue I'd expect a luthier to use for most applications, unless they're striving for historical accuracy in restoration.

It's not expensive and a small container will probably last the rest of your life.

Unless I let it deep freeze and thaw through cycles, like I have a habit of doing. It’s one of the disadvantages of keeping a well-stocked vehicle which does not always make it into the garage. Frankly, the glue I have might be fine, but it has some spotty discoloration which I do not view as a positive.
