215 Cabinets???
« on: October 18, 2005, 01:41:21 pm »
I have two vintage Sunn 2x15 cabinets. One appears to be all original and the other I reloaded with d140's. They have different grill cloths and I want them to match. What does the original grill cloth look like and where can I get it?

As far as I can tell, the mid - late sixties style style doesn't exist. I had better luck with the '69 - seventies Fender style grill cloth. Look at the 2000S pics in the "Sunn Museum" and you'll get a pretty good idea of the difference between the two.
The closest I've found so far is from Wendell Fabrics Corporation; www.wendellfabrics.com
The style is #SF7005. The rectangles are the same width but slightly deeper vertically, and there is a little less black thread in the vertical warp. Pretty close though. The smallest piece you can get is 72" X 72" and it's $50 -$60.

The Fender style is the closest that you can come because the old Sunn style is no longer made, and hasn't been for quite awhile.
