Does anyone in the forum know where I can source the grill cloth material that was popular through the 1950's with a number of manufacturers? We've all seen it - it's like a brown or dark red weave, almost like Fender's 'Oxblood' grill material found on a lot of their blond and tan cabs. It was very common with mahogany finished cabs made from the '40's through the early 60's.

Any help is greatly appreciated-

Regards,
Charley

Well, you can get Fender's Oxblood (and other styles) grille cloth in ~36" by 36" pieces.

Here's one place, never bought from them, no affiliation, etc.:
