Locking Crimp Lug Removal?

[CJ]

these lugs are starting to show up in guitar amps with increased frequency, much to the chagrin of anybody who has to remove them in order to remove the circuit board for whatever reason.

and they are tough, stainless steel, so you end up ripping the pc board apart in frustration of you lose your patience,

is there some type method or special needle nose pliers made for removing these offensive monstrosities?

thanks for any help!

What brands? Maybe write to them with a bill for your removal costs.
