The other big cabinet issue is the tuning knob. It is missing a gold colored covering that is in the middle of the knob. It looks like it was glued in and has come off. You can see what the knob is supposed to look like from this link to a C661 in our Gallery Library.
Mine is somewhat less than that!
I sanded down the rough section and filled the holes with Timbermate wood filler. There is probably a better filler for plastic but this is what I had on hand.
After a couple of rounds of fill and sand I got it pretty smooth.
And the final product after taping it and painting with a gold spry paint.
