Looking for someone fairly local to change the grill cloth on some 60s Fender amps

What's Hot

Hi everyone, just wondered if anyone near Maidstone/Tunbridge Wells in Kent has experience in replacing the grill cloth on old Fenders? I have a '65 2x10 Tremolux cab, '64 1x15 Pro Amp and a '67 Super Reverb. I have just ordered the correct aged cloth from Tube Town for each but would like it done properly so it's straight and tight.

Any recommendations? Ideally don't want to pay a fortune or drive too far.

Thanks!

Olly

    Just remove the baffles from the cabs and courier to your preferred cab builder, such as @Modulus_Amps ;

  • It’s a very easy thing to DIY.
    All you need is a decent staple gun and a couple of clamps and maybe some glue and obviously the grill materiel.

    ^^^ I couldn't do it until November now.

    Sorry I don't know anyone down your end that does that sort of thing.

    I don't know of anyone in the south-east that might help but you could try Mark at AF Custom Cabinets in Wales. He builds amp and speaker cabs to a very high standard. It's worth a call.

    Rich at Alder and Ash pedalboards would be able to assist. He’s in the Maidstone area
