Peavey Tnt150 Combo

Can anyone tell me the correct way to remove the front grille cloth without damaging anything please.

Cheers, Mick.

If you mean remove from combo box, I used to prise them (Mk3 bass combo, Bass Combo 300W) using a screwdriver and gentle angled levering. They are held on with 4 pieces of rigid nylon velcro type stuff - but much stronger, in fact sometines very strongly.

Ideal tool - an L shaped piece of metal with the small lip (botton of the L) being about 1 ~ 2 mm high / long with a wooden handle on the other end.

This would be small enough to slip into the gap between grille and combo sides/top. Hook the lip over the back of grille and pull - possibly very strongly.

hope this is explained well enough - could draw and post a diagram if needed.

That sounds like the trick, I'll give it a go tomorrow and report back. The reason it needs removing is to try and find the annoying rattle it has developed!

Cheers, Mick.

I find those blanking pieces at the back of a PC (the ones you remove when inserting a card) are perfect for this.
