I have a GK Goldline 1x15 and 2x10 cab. It has the cotton outliner. And so my cats like to scratch it while im not there.  Where would i be able to get it refinished?

Seriously though, start by calling some local upholstery shops. Any good shop that refinishes furniture may be able to do your cabs too.

And it is their essence. What is a cat without claws, you cannot take their essence. I actually try to dictate my gear choice around said essence. Line X or Tolex only! Metal Grill only! So much more devastating anyway. I am sorry again to hear that. I had to get baby locks on all the doors in my house, my cat can open lever doors no prob.

Jesus Munji, that's just nasty. A sweet tasty bowl of antifreeze that would melt their livers would be so much more civilized. |

Bad Boy Bubby is a really awful movie. But it has a good cat-care suggestion that would help you avoid future cab damage. |

I bought a few yards of black industrial carpeting from Peavey online, then hired an upholstery guy from the local carpet store. He turned the job around within a day, and for a surprisingly good price too.
I learned my lesson. I kept the cover on whenever the amp was not in use. And I kept a squirt bottle filled with cold water nearby, for whenever the amp was exposed while I was using it...

My cats loves to hang out in my studio so I've had to take precautions.
Stacatto is right.
I got covers for my SWR goliath cabs after I caught my cats having
a field day sharpening their weapons on my gear.
Most cover are waterproof and slippery. They won't scratch that stuff.
They absolutely love that carpet covering.
That's what they do.
Buy covers and a scratching post with catnip to keep em' busy
problem solved.

I can't complain, he earns his keep in mice control!
