Fender didn't dig too deep they found the correct material on the George Benson Deluxe but in gray.
I once found some Italian cloth called snowflake in white with black accents that matched. Retro grille cloth is easier to find.

Ken Watts Turretboards.com also has 3 Supro kits so I wonder if he will change that to Valco?

That's a good link. Check the Hendrix bit at the bottom ... I've been looking at vinyl wallpaper hired hand is right there's a lot I could see on an amp.M Fowler wrote:Fender didn't dig too deep they found the correct material on the George Benson Deluxe but in gray.

Yea I had heard that the first amp companies hired out luggage companies to build the first boxes, thus suitcase amps

Anyone know where to find the schematic and layout for that Supro 1688tn in the video?
Re: Supro Amp brand relaunching in 2014
I was in a hotel recently where the sofa had a tweed covering that was a dead ringer for that Supro covering. I betcha you could order something "close enough" from a furniture recovering place.
If it won't kill me by taking it into the bathtub, I don't want anything to do with it!
