Hello All,
I have finally received my empty OLYMPUS S8R cabinets from California after waiting over 12 months for them. Well they did manage to get lost and then they were to big to fit into what ever they were trying to put them into???? but alas they did make it.
I am very happy with them, now the restoring can start, in actual fact they are really in quite good condition, better than what I had been expecting! they need a good polish and a couple of small repairs but they are nearly consecutive serial numbered cabinets, only 1 digit apart and they are "vintage" just what I wanted.
The reason for my message is that as one can imagine with the length of time and the distance travelled the ornate grills took a bit of a hammering hence I am need of some 'genuine' fret work to get these cabs back to pristine condition, I am looking mainly at 2 x end pieces, on the sides of the cabinets, in reasonable condition, I can do repairs with some of the 'pieces' I was left with, if anyone could help me locate a supplier or have any 'pieces' that they would like to send to a good home I am sure we could work out something.
Thank you for your time
Kindest Regards
Garry
