Hi everyone !
I'm a noob on this forum so I hope I post in the right section...
I'm working on a restauration / transformation project and I will make custom faceplates.
Does anyone knows de gold color code for original marshall plexi faceplates and the name of the font use ? I'm crawling google since a few days and can't grab anything reliable...
Thanks a lot !
Doc

The colour of originals seems to vary too, they used a metallic green backing colour (goes a bit like verdigris) which I think contributes to the distinctive colours

Re: Plexi faceplate color code and font
They did all vary color wise, as well as the amount and size of the metal flakes. The backing does indeed affect the color, we have used white for pale gold panels, black for darker gold and green for in between.
The fonts were made by hand, according to graphics guys I've had try to find a font. They also changed depending on how much bleed there was when printed, thin and sharp vs thick and fuzzy.
