anyone know where to find a templte of sorts for an old bassman head back panel ?

All I find online is people selling panels.

Kinda like to replace mine and have it close to original, but for the $40 plus shipping most want for their recreations I can buy a lot of plywood ! tolex and glue.

You can easily fabricate one yourself. All it takes is some cardboard, a tape measure, a steel framing square, a pencil, and a utility knife. Use a medicine bottle to create the radiuses at both ends of each "oval". It's not rocket surgery.

Kinda figured that might be the response.

I just thought maybe someone may have layed out the dimmensions at some point.

But I'll just use a big hole saw for the round ends and connect the dots with a jig saw.

how about the length and height of the oblong holes ???? PLEASE !

what till ya see my next post :mrgreen:

I don't have a Bassman handy but based on the Bandmaster/Showman layout, the outboard radiuses of the ovals are 1.5" from each outer edges. The ovals are spaced 3.25" apart at the inner radiuses and they're 2" tall.
