I've said it before and I'll say it again: You will never achieve the proper shades on a radio cabinet with stain!
You must use tinted (toning) lacquer to properly replicate the original finish. This is what the factories used "back in the day".
I would use Medium Walnut (the dye version) for B and C; Perfect Brown for A.
Mohawk Ultra Classic. A Bing or Google search will turn up several online vendors of the stuff.

Some day, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift
