 No point in using the gojo on it, that finish is shot, best to strip it right down and start over. Most of it seems to be of a light to medium walnut colour on the solid wood parts, except the grille bars which have some sort of faux finish on them. The original knobs were pretty generic looking things, the PT-10 used the same kind, and Ive seen ones like that on probably several dozen sets from various makes.
Regards
Arran
