Is your parts set a 66MB? I'm looking for the wood dial escutcheon for my set, or a cabinet.

My other 66 is a 66B. The one we have been working on is a 66S.

Finally! The 66 fired up and sounds fantastic! Thanks to all that helped get[Image: http://i1079.photobucket.com/albums/w511/jph141/662.jpg] me to hopefully a new level. I was so excited about this working, I did not take any photos of electronics- only finished project.
Again, THANKS to all!
