Re: cloth for Amberola grill
Original cloth? No, the originals have all pretty much disintegrated these days.
However, Any decent fabric store will have a variety of cloths for you to choose from. Stick with solid color and lightweight and you'll be fine.

Re: cloth for Amberola grill
I hope you won't take offense if I point out a spelling error. It's neither spelled nor pronounced as "Amberola". It is "Amberola", pronounced amber-ola, and the word is always capitalized, since it is a model name.

Take your pick... Plenty on Ebay..
It's usually all the same sellers...and its good stuff. I've used it in most of my machines. Excellent quality.
I've used this guy for years...

For an Amberola 50, I would go with the Brownish Gold colored cloth.

Re: cloth for Amberola grill
Thanks Tony. I just purchased a very nice original mahogany Amberola 50 that plays very well. The only thing missing is the grill cloth. I understand they are glued on. I would like to keep the dust out of the horn but then I have two cygnet horns on display that need dusted. Tom B

I have an Amberola 50 that came with a wire reinforced grille cloth. I really like it, wish I could find more of it for other machines.
