What colour tolex/grille cloth for my JTM45 1x12?

Jalfrezi

I'm going to get a 1x12 Combo cab for my JTM45, but I'm undecided what grille cloth, and what colour Tolex.  Zilla will be building it for me.

Give me some inspiriation please...

Pics to give the idea from Germino in the USA

This is the 1 x 12" we make, Marshall have two types of pinstripe material, this one is from the 1974x and is nicer than the other type that is more grey.

Or you can get the bluesbreaker cloth shown above, depends on how much you want to spend

Here is a 1 x 12 and 2 x 12 with the same grill, but with white piping rather than gold.

I like the classic black and gold look for Marshall clones, the black on green tolex also looks really smart

The EC Collins grill cloth is the business. I have a piece to do my 1974X whenever I finally get around to actually doing it!

The black on green 1x12 looks great.  Is it deep enough to fit a JTM45 (with KT66's) and a Celestion Gold?

What kind of money are we talking for a 1x12 sized piece?  I've emailed the man, but no reply to date.

The cabs above are all black, will need to see if I have a black on green cab photo somewhere. My cabs all fit a standard JTM45 chassis with KT66 and with a 12" speaker, we also use T-nuts and screws rather than wood screws for securing the rear panel that holds the chassis.

I am sure Paul at Zilla will make his deep cab is deep enough, but defo worth talking it through with him, There was an issue with some Marshall cabs not being deep enough for KT66, so you can't just copy those.

LOL.  On my screen the 1x12 looks like it has a green tint on the top, so I assumed it was BoG.

poopot

It’s not cheap, I think mine was £180 inc postage two years ago. In fact, that’s just stupid money, I don’t know what I was thinking!
