grill cloth for a 45 butterfly
#1

I am in need of the correct grill cloth for my 45. I have the original but It may need replacing. Does anyone know which one is the closest match?

looked all over ebay and didn't see anything except this.

Ask Kenny. Maybe he knows.

Ahem.

The cloth used in the 45C was never accurately reproduced. The cloth in the link you posted, Kirk, is probably as good as it gets.

My Small herringbone would look good in that set,... The designs are about the size of a grain of rice and it is a pretty deep rich gold color.

This is used and dirty but it is a small diamond print.

Ew, who was drinking coffee on top of the radio?
I wish there was not paint on the original cloth. it is in perfect condition.
