PRS 2x12 cabinet front panel

[rickcard71]

Does anyone know how to take off the front wood portion of the cabinet? Can it be taken off without taken the entire amp apart?

Mine is velrco'ed in place.

Do you know how to take it off? I think they are all velcro'ed in place.

Yeah, I used a stiff pick and pried it off from the top-front edge. Mine has piping on the bottom edge so I stayed away from that. You could also use a large paper clip, straighten the open end, use a pair of pliers to form a 1/4" long 90 degree bend in the tip, and use it to get behind the panel, from the front, and pull it off. But man, be careful!

Great, thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!

I gotta ask: Why are you guys removing the wood fascia? Do you need to do that to access something on the amp?

 

[Boogie]

I was looking at a new wood panel, at one point.

Why?

Well, I could have the Stealth panel, a Tiger Eye Panel, a Teal/Black Panel, a Vintage Yellow panel, and a Dragon's Breath panel...one for every occasion.

That, sir, is an understatement! :flute:

 

[Boogie]

No one asked it it was a logical or practical reason. :biggrin:

Besides, considering the other frivolous options with the PRS brand, my Stealth trim seems to be the most reasonable. But damn, I'd take black paisley in a heart beat.

I opted for this on my Archon - and yes, it looks very fine indeed.

Might be safer to remove the grill from the back and push the wood panel off from the back side. I wanted a walnut panel, and that's how I removed the original before I installed this one.
