Hi all! I searched the forums, but couldn't find the answer to what I'm looking for. I sent the cabinet for my 38-7 out to be refinished but forgot to measure the speaker panel for the dimensions for new grill cloth. Can anybody help me out? Also, I've seen a couple of different online advertisements for grill cloth. Anybody have good experiences with any particular vendor? Thanks!

Is this a console, chairside, or table model?

Radio Grille Cloth Headquarters is the best place to purchase grillecloth.

I don't own one of these, but Radio Grille Cloth Headquarters only sells this cloth in three sizes: 24" x 25" (for one console), 52" x 24" (for two consoles), 44" x 52" (for four consoles).

The pattern number you need is #41, by the way.
