You will be happy with that set, it has nice tone, a good speaker, for 5 tube set it has great sound, could be more sensitive but it plays well. Mine is pictured here, a bit dinged, and not original dial but it has groen on me.

Good luck with it. Mine is original as far as I can tell, it only got a bit of Howards, I did nothing but clean up the case,hope that may hel with your colors.
