Well, I tried bleaching the cigarette burn. I think it lightened the color of the burn mark somewhat.

Next questions: The lighter color wood on this cabinet seems to be birdseye maple. I bought some and it is a good match (thanks again Arran). Would the birds eye maple need to be grain filled? It seems to have a much finer grain than Walnut does, but not sure if still needed. I don't want to darken that wood if I don't need to do so.

Also, there is a crack in the birdseye maple in one place on the front of the radio. If grain filler isn't recommended for this wood, what would be the best way to fill that crack?
