I have always tried suede outside my country, but in the end I must say that here in Italy there is a good chance of finding good materials. There are good manufactured
here's in the photos example of very good faux-suede!

Here's couple with both faux suede and the real thing. I pick up the real stuff at Tandy's, usually get both sides at a time which you can get 4 headboxes out of usually. the brown is the real stuff but the grey looks great as well. In fact in person most can't tell without touching it.

Yes - both you guys are making great looking cabs!
Sergio - when it comes to suede, Italy is THE place to be!
Tubedogsmith - Is the faux suede you're using regular upholstery suede? How is it for wear?

It's upholstry suede I think. It seems to be holding up pretty well. those amps are a couple years old and still look fine.

The faux-suede I bought (ordered) by an upholsterer here close to my country, I think you can also find some Italian dealer on Ebay or on the web, but I never tried to looking for.
