Mosrite Amp Grill Cloth?

Postby jnslobaugh » Fri Jul 31, 2009 6:48 pm

Wondering what Grill Cloth was used on the Known Mosrite Amps?

Also looking for a high Res Graphic of the Mid 60's "MOSRITE Of California" Logo.

Thanks in advance Mosriteers

Jeffrey,
If I remember correctly, I believe someone had posted that the Grill Cloth was the same as what
could be found at Radio Shack. I think it was even on one of these threads under this Topic. ;)
make the Mos' of it, choose the 'rite stuff.

Jeffrey:
I don't know which grill cloth you are looking for, the stuff for your amp or the stuff they used on the Award amps or the Bakersfield era amps?

All of the photos that I've seen of your style of amp, seem to be solid white or silver with no noticeable pattern.

The Award and Bakersfield amps used what looks like the standard Acoustitone stuff. In fact some of the Bakersfield amps look like they used the same blue threaded cloth that Fender used in the late sixties and early seventies.

I think that there is a version of early Marshall cloth that would probably look similar to what was originally on your amp. Was there anything left of the original cloth on the front panel of your amp?
