I picked this old guy up a week or so ago. THe good news is the chassis and speaker are in good shape but the cabinet isn't. The veneer on the top is going to need to be replaced. I was wondering what type of veneer is it? And what color or colors of toned lacquer would I need to match the original finish? Pic's here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/53710524@N06/
TNX! for taking a look

Hi Terry

Sorry for not replying sooner. Very nice find!

That is surely walnut veneer, and either Medium Walnut or Perfect Brown would look good on that 37-620CS cabinet.
