Travis Toy- Speaker Swap Help!

Post by Doug Paluch »

I have a travis toy amp, and I wanted to try a different speaker in the cabinet, but I have no clue how to remove it. It looks as if the speaker is front loaded, and there is nothing indicating how the grill cloth is attached. Any suggestions?

I don't know for sure about the TT amp, but other amps that have front loaded speakers and a grill cloth, usually have the grill cloth mounted on a wood frame. Then there is velcro on the back of the frame and on the amp itself. You have to easilly pry a corner loose to get the velcro to break loose and then sortof snap the grill off.

Hope this helps.

I THINK that the TT combo is just a 202 in a BlockDock with a TT speaker in it, right?

I swapped my TT-12 for the PF-350 a while back just to try it out, but my leads were attached with the plunger connectors, not like the ones in the video here. But everything else the same. Pretty quick and simple process.
