[Hammarlund] HQ 129 X cabinet color

[jeremy-ca]

OK, now I got it! I thought they were the Tuning knobs.

Both of mine have all the original small knobs. One has original tuning and 
the other has fluted with spinners, they feel nice to use, maybe weighted 
like National did.

Dont forget the SX-9 interior shots if you ever run across them Ken. Thanks.
