I did, i tried a few different searches and either got SWR-meter (CB radio equipment) or silverado (Chevy truck) accessories and parts. When I did real specific searches or went in through musical instruments and what not I got nothing.

any other suggestions?

Try SWR grill and then ask the seller who has a workingmans 10 grill listed if he can help you out. I'd post the link but I'm on a iPhone and it's a pain.

Wow I wonder do you have my old combo? I traded it in @ GC in Saginaw MI a year ago and never saw it again. Is yours the 4X8 or 2x12 as mine was? Sorry for getting off of your subject.

What parts do you need other than the grill? As a Fender dealer, we can order any SWR replacement parts through GC. I had to order a caster for my Megoliath. Painless & real quick.

I have no idea, I did not buy mine at GC though, it was a Music Go Round in Troy...but it is the 2x12 version

Actually the grill is all I'm looking for, only other blemish on this thing is the SWR logo on the panel has a scratch going through it. I will hit up a GC and see what they say tho, didn't think of it at first cause about a year ago I needed a couple of small things and the one out here wasn't much help.

Thanks for all the input and I'll post links and/or info when I get some answers for anyone else in my situation.

Anytime I inquired with SWR about parts, they referred me to a dealer.

I'll call tomorrow and see if they sell em, and what the cost is. Gotta make a few calls for some TB members, so I'll add it to my list of things to do

Yeah, I was hoping to get the logo badge for the grille on my Workingman's Tower. But, I gave up.
