Ampeg Tolex.

[Monckyman]

I`m considering re-covering an 80s ampeg cab which is pretty tatty, but I`m not having much fun finding ampeg tolex.
Allparts UK have an Ampeg Tolex page, but it`s blank.
The only other obvious source is Fliptops in the U.S.
I don`t suppose a couple of yards of tolex and a couple of foot of grillcloth will cost much to ship. Anyone have any good guesses?
Anyone have suggestions for a UK source?

I used these guys a few years ago, the tube amp doctor from Germany.

They do a good range of tolex and the right glue, great "efficient" service too.

heres a link:

Thanks for the reply Bassman, but I`m not seeing anything specifically Ampeg there.
The basket one does look close though.
I have a few sources for good looking Tolex but none that match Ampegs modern version.

I see your problem.
I ended up buying Marshall red for my Fender bassman 135, mainly just to annoy the Fender purists though lol.
It is very good quality stuff though.
I do remember some eBay sellers doing Ampeg stuff a while ago.
