Photo of a Logo-Plate for a 210-65-footswitch

Dr. Horst

Hi, I'm new here.

I've bought a '75 210-65. Speakers are new (Eminence "Legend"), Tolex is ok. The "clean" sound is great, this amp is unbelieveable loud! The photo shows my amp before cleanup and removal of rust and silver-paint from the cabinet-corners...
The potiknobs looked really desolate, I replaced them by "Blackface"-knobs. The numbers on the skirt reach from "1" to "10", but, as a compromise, that's o.k. for me (who, except an MM-afficinado will see the difference?).
By the way, has anyone tried to order new knobs at MM/Markbass? The knobs from the new MM-Amps look equal to the old ones.
I renewed the footswitch. New cables, new soldering, new paint (the housing was spray-painted in cheapo-silver).
The logoplate on top of the housing (tremolo/reverb) is worn, you can barely read the writing on it.
Has anyone here a good (high-resolution, true-scale) photo of a logoplate and would load it up here? I would like to rebuild a logoplate.

Thx, have a nice weekend,
Dr. Horst

I'm on vacation so I can't now but I can take a pic when I get home later in the week if you don't have one by then. Mike

Thx a lot! Haven't got one yet. I would try to rebuild a new plate by using the backside of the label plate and self-adhesive decal-sheet. A photo would be helpful.

There's a footswitch for sale where the seller posted some nice close-ups.

Cheers,

Looks good, worth a try! I´ll fill up the space (where the washers are) with black colour and print it on some decal sheet.
Gonna post some pics of my renewed amp in "Brag About...", when all is done.
Thank you!!

Thx Lars! I guess, the auction has ended, couldn´t findt it there anymore...

Let me know if you need a better pic. I can clean it and even take the switches out if need be, I don't use a footswitch anyway and I have two (somewhere, there IS another one here in this pit!). Mike.
