Big Mick Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Can anyone tell me the correct way to remove the front grille cloth without damaging anything please. Cheers, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3below Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) If you mean remove from combo box, I used to prise them (Mk3 bass combo, Bass Combo 300W) using a screwdriver and gentle angled levering. They are held on with 4 pieces of rigid nylon velcro type stuff - but much stronger, in fact sometines very strongly. Ideal tool - an L shaped piece of metal with the small lip (botton of the L) being about 1 ~ 2 mm high / long with a wooden handle on the other end. This would be small enough to slip into the gap between grille and combo sides/top. Hook the lip over the back of grille and pull - possibly very strongly. hope this is explained well enough - could draw and post a diagram if needed.

The reason it needs removing is to try and find the annoying rattle it has developed! Cheers, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffbyrne Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) I find those blanking pieces at the back of a PC (the ones you remove when inserting a card) are perfect for this. G. Edited January 23, 2011 by geoffbyrne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
