The cabinet with a more pronounced "peak" in the top is a later production version, and most of these have the 4-band chassis, although some have been found with 5-band chassis. Whether this was done by previous owners or at the factory is anyone's guess. The early production version, with a somewhat flatter top (less of a pronounced "point" in the center) had the older 5-band chassis.
