I wonder......My grills looks just like that now. But I had to paint mine, because they originally had a nakked yellowish (like the case back) plastic finish.
So is that original, redone (like mine), or is there more than 1 variation?

Mine has the yellowish dirty look you noted. I am behind on projects so I won't really know what I've got till I clean the box up.
I couldn't live with my yellowish plastic grill. Made the dang thing look super cheap to skimp even on the paint. It's bad enough it's not a real metal grill but rather a cheap molded imitation but to leave it naked? So I painted mine a graphite/pewter color and now, it looks right (although in the back of my mind, I'll always know).oldskool69 said:Mine has the yellowish dirty look you noted.

Looks like there is more than one variation. Mine has plastic and chrome bits in behind the grills. I'm still holding my breath for a cassette door before I need the sticker...
I think the National version looks better than the Panasonic. It is odd the handle on the National is not color matched like the Pana

(Well, also because I didn't like the sound.......seemed rather muffled, and all midrange)
But, the Ambience feature worked quite nicely.
I'll bring mine to the meet Reli, let me know what you think about the sound compared to the one you had.Reli said:Mine had the yellowish grill too. I sold it because of that

I did but it only turned out ok
Bobby can get it professionally done to look more realistic
