Hello everyone,

Need help identifying what veneer is on this radio.I'm stuck between walnut and maybe hickory. It's a Philco 41-610. I stripped a small area to get a better look but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks for the help.

I had some time to strip the entire side of the radio. The second image is of the bare wood with just water on it. The veneer has a redish-brown color to it.I ordered a sample pack of veneer and the walnut isn't even close. Is this maybe mahogany or cherry? I'm thinking about patching with light colored wood then staining to match.
