I have this model radio, which had a muddy, crumbly extra dark brown toner all over it, no color variation between the base and the top. I scraped it lightly which removed all of the finish, and there doesn’t appear to ever have been any stain applied to the wood. I want to refinish it properly, but since I haven’t seen a close-up of a maple model, all I know is the dark brown walnut version. The raw edges of the plywood appear to have been originally painted black or very dark brown, and I would think that the base trim should be a different color, maybe a medium walnut or dark walnut toner. Part of the front has a quilted ripple grain, which I do not want to obscure.
