Don's my evil twin brother - I'm Ron Icon_lol

When I mentioned colors, I was referring to Mohawk toning lacquer. Sorry for not being more clear about that. Toning lacquer is very similar to what the original finish was, which was lacquer with aniline dyes mixed in to give it a transparent color (or opaque color as in the case of the top, sides and trim on sets like your 643B).

Well, good luck to you in your reverse engineering. I hope it works out OK. Please feel free to jump in here anytime if we can be of help.
