Just found this in the back of a closet. Forgot I had it. It was a spare in case my BassBomb grill got messed up. If you remember, I sold that cab here on TB in September of last year. According to Tim, owner of EarCandy, the supplier of this cloth has been instructed by Zenith Corp. to sell it exclusively to Zenith. These are now very rare. If you own a BassBomb and would like an alternate look, this could be for you. Also, if you have a guitar player that owns the BuzzBomb 2x12, this will fit. It's in like new condition. I also have the original shipping material from EarCandy (see last pic). It will get to you in one piece. This grill cost me quite a chunk of change. That, and it's 'unobtainableness'  , is reflected in the asking price. $65, buyer pays shipping. http://s95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...hotos00415.jpg http://s95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...hotos00416.jpg http://s95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...hotos00418.jpg http://s95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...hotos00417.jpg http://s95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...hotos00419.jpg

Nice grill cloth for sure, but probably not as rare as you were led to believe.

To my eye it's the coolest fabric ever, next to tie-dye. On their website the linked company calls this cloth '1939 scallops'. The smallest piece you can buy to fit the EarCandy grill frame is 25" x 52". They charge $45 plus shipping. Then you have to build the frame and staple on the cloth. But...considering the fact that it is still available to us ordinary folks, a price reduction may be in order. 
Price reduced to $50, buyer pays shipping.

If enough of us start using it, maybe Webster's will add it to their next revision.
Sample sentence: Many bass players are frustrated because of the unobtainableness of the tone in their head.
