I think Buzz Audio or Cowan Audio used to do them? Maybe give em a ring and they can point you in the right direction.

'they' as in the tone boffins on the internet say that if you have an old/vintage G75T, you should get it fixed as they are quite a different speaker to the new G75T. I have no idea if this is true, but I have a JCM cab with 3 old G75T and one newer one and that cab does sound rather magnificent in my opinion

Noted, although I guess that's up to my colleague to cost/ benefit :thumbup: I'd go for a recone,but haven't done one in years so dunno what they'd sting in current climes
