Need Help Finding a Vintage Marshall Cab Part! :)

[Ian1eh]

Hi Guys!

I'm looking for a specific part that Marshall used for their cabinets.....some boutique cab builders use this part as well.

The part is the single round plate that surrounds the input jack on a vintage Marshall 4x12. I have seen this part in black plastic in a few places, but I need to find one in a "creme" color if at all possible......

Any ideas?

I need this part for a vintage 1974 Framus Jan Akkerman guitar that I am finishing......the guitar came from the Framus factory in 1975 when they closed. The guitar was ready for final sanding . finishing when Framus closed in 1975. These guitar used the exact same part on their input jacks as the vintage Marshall cabs used.

I'm not sure if I will ever be able to find a creme-colored plastic part, but I thought you guys would know!

Cheers
Ian

Thanks for replying Jim!

Interesting thing is that the original Fram Akkerman guitars used this part, and they were "white".....that was the 70's though.

Do you think I could have this done custom somehow?......not sure whon your supplier is....

Thanks for the help!

Cheers!

I don't have a supplier for these. I found a guy on eBay that had a bunch and I bought 20 or so when I do cabinet restorations. Typically those jack plates get hosed so I replace them. But they're not being made anymore from what I understand, so that's why I bought 20 of them cuz I knew I'd be buying old cabs in the future that would need them....cuz I'm a frigging cab whore.
