Opinions: Grill Cloth for 37-116 & 116B & 16B
#3

I just installed the Richmond cloth in my 37-116.  It is not the same as the original. but then, neither is the Radio Daze.  The Richmond cloth is, I think, closer but, IMHO, is too dark.  It's hard to see the chevron when standing back.  Here are some comparison photos with the original cloth.  You can see the Radio Daze cloth on the left is closer to the faded part of the original.  The Richmond cloth on the right is closer to the un-faded original.  If I were to do it again, I'd probably use the Radio Daze cloth if I could get it wide enough for the 37-116 (18" is not wide enough to cover the whole sound board.)  Richmond was willing to cut me a piece much wider so that I could cover the board.  Perhaps Radio Daze would too.
