There is a fairly gentle product called Goo Gone that works really well on adhesives of all kinds. You could get some and try it on some inconspicuous place to make sure it left the finish alone.

I discovered phonographs soon after my son was born and I needed an "indoor" hobby while he was an infant. Sold my 1970 Corvette (loaded big block, for those who know Vettes), and the 1956 Ford F-100 pickup (since it didn't have seatbelts) and moved my new hobby into the kitchen until he could "walk" outside to the garage with me. I have owned several cars and way too many phonos. Here's my current driver, a 1966 Corvette. Not old enough, you say?
