hmmm, didn't look cherry to me... the color is a walnut. Does seem to look that way a bit in the picture...Maybe the picture shows it that way a bit. Maybe the fluorescent light does that, not sure. i will take more pics as I finish it and hopefully it wont look cherry then. Thanks Morzh and Greg, I appreciate the thoughts.

Hey Warren, Fantastic, it looks great!! Wish I could do that.

The cabinet looks great Warren! I think it is probably the lighting that makes the colors appear off to some. I know when I take pictures for RM I notice a color shift between natural, flash, and florescent lighting.

That looks amazing Warren. Wow! I just picked up a 47-1227. Do you by chance know the color scheme on that model? I def want to be sure before I do anything, especially where I am new to the hobby. Thanks!
