Ed, after reviewing mine, including the several other 36 era sets I have. I believe you're right. It looks a little to "red". My 650B and 640X both are in pretty good shape. The front panels are in good to excellent condition, and have a darker brown look with deeper "tone" for lack of a better word. Not criticizing, but since I'm sure you want it close. That's my observation
P.S., you can see my front panel on my 650X below my name. It's front panel is also in nice shape. But the rest needs refinishing
