New Grille Cloth Available
#16

Yeah, I was down at Kenny's last spring and the supplier messed up and he got stuck with a whole batch that was too dark. He had just developed a process where he can lighten it up and it looks pretty good. That block pattern was the most difficult to get the correct weave.

Just received two pieces of Kenny's new cloth- both are outstanding.
Got a console piece of the Whiskey Rayon for a Zenith 10S567- perfect match for original
Got a piece of the small diamond pattern for a Philco 60B- very near perfect match.
High quality stuff.

I have all of Kenny's new GC's and they are outstanding in quality and color.

I just received (2 days ago) the diamond reversible pattern in the 25 x 25 to do a old Edison phonograph for a friend. It looks fantastic and the service was great. Don't hesitate. I will order from Kenny again. The owner & his wife just love it. The cloth was very close to the original piece that was still hanging on the Edison.

I got some replacement griil cloth for my 40-190 console from and Etsy site: http://www.etsy.com/shop/SpeakerFabricSu...eader-name
It was not an exact match to my cat scratched and torn original, but it was close.
