I have seen a couple different finishes on these, but cannot find any info on the MOOG website

some appear more reddish brown, and others are more yellowish/brown

does anyone know what they are called? are they all made out of the same type of wood?

thx

According to a message from Moog posted at https://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?p=161271#p161271 there is only one finish option for the Model D reissue. But sure, it’s wood, so they won’t all look the same.

wow, that is interesting!

thanks!

I was sure there were multiple finish options, based on the variance in colour I’ve seen…or maybe I’m hallucinating

… or the white balance of all photos has not been matched.

Anyhow: When I first watched pictures/videos and later on saw the Model D Reissue in real life I didn’t like that yellowish finish compared to my former darker redish Model D. Now the Model D Reissue has been in my possession for about 6 months and now I love the finish.

If I had the option to get a Model D Reissue red/brown instead of the yellowish cabinet I probably would go for it. But I’m completely happy with the finish as is.
