Ampeg Blue/Silver grill cloth not available anywhere

Still need to attach it to the cab but its looking good. And just bought a used 810. Will need to build a new grill.

So I’m in touch with someone who has some grill cloth that matches his “3+ year old Micro VR”. He sent me photos, but I can’t tell if the cloth has any blue in it. The cloth on the front of my B25-b definately has blue in it.

Anyone know if the cloth on a Micro VR has blue in it?

Thanks.
 
yeah.. i bought a silver/black 2x10 about three years ago used . I ordered a new one to make a stack. When it come in it was powder blue / silver. We had to rummage through a bunch in the store to find one with less blue and more silver. I did , but they're still not exact.. but close enough to fool " She Who Must Be Obeyed " , and the wife has a great eye for color matching. She's a Quilter. ( she loved my old BB800 lol)
 
So I ended up biting the bullet and ordering the cloth from tubetown.de ; got the last of it they had. Expensive with the shipping to the US, but I was tired of waiting.

Made my V4 cab look really good.

Still no stock around from Ampeg though. Yamaha?

If anybody wants to trade a 610 AV grill for a regular 610 HLF grill I would be willing. My head has the black and the cab is that blue silver. Seems simpler to trade somebody than to rip this stuff off and redo it in black.... especially if these are hard to find.

(If this kind of inquiry is against the rules and requires an ad just let me know. I'm not wanting any money. Just wanting to swap even if somebody could use this color grill.)

@JimmyM if I recall, the 610 AV is just an HLF with that silver grill, correct?

It's is great shape. Sorry for the awful pics. It's tucked in behind my Mesa rig in my jam room.

Silver grill and AV tolex instead of the nubby CL tolex.

Nice finish on the Mesa! Is that WA a 15"?
 
I bet they do! My WA is a standard issue 12" in black tolex that I would like to get an extension cab for it now cause I need more speaker, not more power imo.

Like the tweedy grills on yours too. What is that finish called?:)

Folklore has it the finish is called "wine lizard". Maybe @agedhorse can confirm if that's a thing?
