Just found your radio in the Library. First page says it has a wooden cabinet with mahogany finish. So to answer your questions; No and Yes. Happy stripping. I would use a citrus stripper applied for several hours keeping it wet. After the stripper is removed, wipe with low odor mineral spirits. When dry, a light sanding with 220 grit. Check the photo in the Phorum Gallery for color variation and highlights, if any. When you wipe the wood with oms it will show you what it will look like if finished with clear lacquer.
