60s Fliptops grillcloth on a 70s Ampeg V4

Sign in to disble this ad
I want to put some vintage style grill cloth on my V4. Some dolt "updated" it to black before I bought it. WOuld it be weird to use the 60s style rather than the regular 70s silver cloth. Mine was made in 72.

60s style wouldn't look so hot IMHO. Get the silver blue.

I bought my grill cloth from them for my 1972 V4 I bought the blue/black one. It looks great. It's a little hard to stretch it perfectly even on the frame, be careful. I got it, but it wasn't easy.

I was thinking about doing this to my Schroeder cab so that it matched my SVT-AV.
