Remove the black screw on the outside of the body to get access?

It's a locking screw. You have to reach inside the soundhole to grab the battery box, and it should drop into your hand when the screw is loosened. The screw shouldn't actually be easily removable, but hang loose on the bowl when you have unlocked the battery holder. Putting it back is a little trickier but it gets easier with practice.
