Fender twin replacement panel

damodai

I've done a google and ended upmore confused than ever (if that's even possible)

I've got a  1992 fender twin  and somewhere along the way its lost its back panel ( covering the valves and stuff)  

Where would I be able to get a replacement ?

thanks

Heh mine has long gone too. The original bit of wood was super thin. 

Mine has been off the amp for over 10 years now, its never been an issue for me. 

Could you just not use a bit of pine or something?

They aren't terribly sturdy to start with.  If you have to have one try Mark at http://afcustomcabinets.weebly.com/index.html.  The man is an artist and it should cost relatively pennies.

A '92 'The Twin' should have a thicker (I think particle-board, although it might be ply) panel than the traditional BF/SF/reissue ones which are 'Masonite' (hardboard), so it might be hard to get the right one.

You could ask someone like Zilla cabs to make one if you want a good match, it's just a plain piece of ply with tolex on it - all you would need to give them is the overall length and an accurate measurement of the screw hole spacing.

I'd have to cut the pine but they don't allow me to use sharp stuff   

Worst case scenario me and a saw !

I think you are right there... it was long ago mine broke but I do seem to recall it being thicker than the card like tolex coated crap that seems to be on a lot of the other twin range
