Californiaman Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I would say search the internet. I've seen GA-40s and other Gibson amps restored before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L5Larry Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 One good source for restoration materials is Antique Electronics Supply (tubesandmore.com). They have a good selection of tolex. As for the logo badge, I have seen both the large and small gold logo plates on e-bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobB Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 www.tubesandmore.com is a great resource for amp restoration projects. You may still be able to get a logo by checking with either www.mojotone.com or www.britishaudioservice.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadCase Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 You may still be able to get a logo by checking with either www.mojotone.com or www.britishaudioservice.com. They both told me no. Good luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
