Where can I find replacement 1970s/80s grille cloth and aluminum strips. I am refurbishing a speaker cabinet. Thanks!

I'm sure you've tried peavey?

The cloth is fairly generic..

A metal supply house should have the extrusions..

Been a while since I last posted... good to see ya' MN!

Anyways, I dunno if the grill cloth IS that generic. It is pretty heavy duty on my 212. I think my 212 is from about '78 or so... but I can't be sure.

If I wanted the original stuff, I would call Peavey like MN said. That being said... I would replace it with leopard skin print of something more wild. To the question "Why"... I would answer "Because its fun".

Look at this as an opportunity to express yourself. Stock is boring. As to the aluminum bars: Definitely call Peavey. If you were close to ATL I could cut some from aluminum raw stock for ya'.

If it helps.. I have a pristine Reknown I can take a closeup of the cloth material and extrusions..

My local speaker only store has a material that's a close match.

I completed a rehab of an '82 Mark IV rig a couple of months ago. I replaced everything except the tolex. Some things I got directly from Peavey. Some items from Antique Electronic Supply, and the grill cloth from Parts Express. It is an identical match to the original. https://www.parts-express.com Go to the right and put in part number 261-800. Looks like they are out of it at the moment, but expecting it in soon. Good luck.
