acrosonic "rattan" music desk

[John Ross]

What about a piece of that 1/8", or less plywood cut to size.
I just don't like the idea, of vinyl.
Or if you could find a dead naugah (sp), somewhere. :-)  (Think 
Wurlitzer, I think that was the brand. Their usage, actually led to the 
extinction, of the naugah)
