Was the original coated with amber (Orange) shellac? Or could they have used a toning dye in the shellac?

It is a dark red mahogany, much like the common Victrola color. I had to plane/sand part of the top. Even using a mix of Minwax Red Mahogany and Jacobean, I am no where near the darkness/intensity of the original color. Any suggestions? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Phono-l mailing list [email protected] http://mail.oldcrank.com/mailman/listinfo/phono-l_oldcrank.com
