60b V2 veneer type?
#1

Got a 60b that the veneer on the sides and top is toast.  Gonna remove all of it.  What would be close to the original?  I know the finish was 2 tone walnut, but is the veneer walnut as well?

You can call me Jerry if you don't want to use my handle.  I get it.  Makes some folks nervous.

Just to be certain which 60 model you've got - is this the one?

In any case, there is a similar discussion for the wood on the sides of the model 89B here which I think might be similar on the sides:

Yes, that's the one.  But going through that thread seems to indicate 1/32 thickness.  Mine is paper thin.  Of course, that's not ruling out that this may be the second time that it was replaced, or that it was sanded a bit much.  This radio was subject of someone's half a$$ed cabinet work before and it's now really dark with gloss poly on top.
