16B cabinet
#1

Hi Ron and all
Is this the correct toning of the 16B cabinet? I have my cabinet ready to spray (sides and top only) and need to ask if this is the correct toneing. Icon_confused

I did some searching on the web and this is the best photo I found of one with the original finish.

The 16B which Bob linked to is a perfect example of another controversial subject - were the edges and trim toned dark, or not?

Like the top edge of the 620/623B front panel, some were, some weren't. No rhyme or reason.
