yes its a rort alright. I buy in enough for 4 cabs at a time and usually the shipping is still more than the tweed. Tolex there are more options, ebay suppliers and their shipp[ing are generally reasonable, but not many have the real deal tweed so I go to Mojosound, at least I know the tweed is correct.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Was just about to point that out. If you just want black standard stuff, livesound takes the shipping charges

I think I have some tolex and cloth laying about.
Also have two complete flender DRRI size (ab1763 style) cabs complete with grill and tolex all ready made up if.that helps.
Or just go buffalo bill style and kidnap other amplifiers, cutting off small sections of tolex abd sewing them together to make a full covering. Dont forget to put the lotion on the tolex tho.
