Sometimes,with the swelling of the guitar body,or a tad bit too much finish in the control cavity,the back cover plate on your guitar does not want to come out. Prying or poking with screwdriver or razor can easily lead to scratches on your guitar.
Here's a tool from your local auto supply shop that can help. Its original purpose is to hand lap valves. Basically it's just a stick with a suction cup on each end.
Simply stick and lift. All but the most stubborn backplates will pop right off. This tip was passed on to me by a customer...who mainly played keyboards! The tip was good enough I decided not to hold it against him.
