Thanks guys.

You're absolutely right 4strings...It's twice as loud now when it's turned off, and my car and truck both go faster too:D Actually it sounds great with or without the right colour cloth.

Regretably I didn't rig up any internal beam-blocking apparatus, since it came to mind post-op which is a drag, but if I ever decide it really needs to be done, I'll spend another $35 and recloth again.

The aged silverface cloth looks real good, but when I did the recloth, I found remnants of the original cloth around a couple inner corner edges under where the drip edge goes; which turns out to be black/white/turqoise and not the aged black/white/light blue that I got from ampwares. All I ever got to look at was the black it had. Who knew?? :)

Anyway, You'd have to look real close, and the only telltale sign is the slight difference in light blue on the cloth to a more turqoise super reverb amp colour on the faceplate. Very minor.

Ignorance is bliss; and I just HAD to look at the website now didn't I?? AAArrrggg haha.

Ok....maybe the truck still goes the same speed, but I'm stickin' with the car and the amp.

Cheers
