Hi All, A friend of mine has a well loved Fender Rumble 40 which she uses as an on stage monitor at church with the DI to the PA. However the grill cloth is damaged and needs replacement. Her dad wants to do this as a surprise, and seems to think I might be competent to help! Fender style cloth will cost about £40-£60, but I don't think she's fussed about an exact match on the cloth, just the grey colour, which means cheaper options are available. This looked pretty good to me. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pewihyer-Protective-Dustproof-Replacement-Speakers/dp/B0FF327BYT Any suggestions on cloth? How hard is it to get the cab apart to change the cloth? Or does the grill just lever forwards? Thanks as always!

Bumped up as I realised the box with this stuff in is still in my garage.

I love ACG basses!

Another talented band.👍 Maybe the future of music won't be so bad after all?

I thoroughly enjoyed that, I left it playing on repeat while decorating. Indie pop isn't my genre really, but as others have said, had an 80s feel, and could almost have been Blondie in a couple of places. There were some neat turns of phrase in the lyrics, particularly in the latter songs on the album. There's some talent developing there Available through Bandcamp, which is how I've bought the CD. https://tulparockband.bandcamp.com/album/monster-of-the-week

I'll kick it off after Christmas.

Of course it is. "And a very profitable Thanksgiving to one and all" said Tiny Tim

Remember too Black Friday bargains are usually just stuff the retailers can't get rid of, or that they've discounted previously anyway.

Almost on the home straight now.

Up to 20 already!

Thanks @Frank Blank You had better add me to the list too I suppose. Brawley 5 string, Roland V-bass system, Ashdown ABM-300, maybe some interesting bits and pieces. Door code to let you lot all in the hall!

BMW connection?? Answered my own question and found this: https://blog.music-man.com/featured-category/the-history-of-the-bongo-bass-a-collaboration-with-bmws-designworks/

Top Pun. (cue the music)

The whole point is bring what you've got. I've never played a proper musicman or a bongo, still on the list, but I played a Harley Benton one year that I way preferred to a Wal.
