Rare Truetone Tombstone twin speaker

Third one from left on top - Whisky Rayon

I use it but spray a little walnut brown dye on it to take the yellow/gold down a notch.

Or maybe the "Soldier Brown" one.

I like the soldier brown and may get some of that and your tombstone set looks beautiful buy the way and is very similar cabinet design to mine.
