Been looking at a Kasino Club 1x15 bass cab. The grill cloth on it is the subdued blueish grayish traditional style cloth. Some Kasinos had the striped shiny cloth. I've seen both, but my question is, do any of you guys know when the grill cloth design changed and which was used first? Thanks.

Does the cab your looking at have a power module in it?

Back when I was 18 the band I was in started to play bigger clubs so we sold our K200-5 and its 4-12 column's and got a Kasino theatre model with each powered cabinet having 2-15" and a Altec horn.

This would have been 1973 or 74 and the grill cloth was silver/ gray stripes with black stripes.
I don't know when they went over to that blue gray cloth but my guess is that it would have been in the late 70s when Kustom started to make the real professional series of Pa gear with the 2-12" folded horn cabinets, the separate big Bi amps and the huge EV separate horns like we had when we ditched our high impeadence Kasino set up.

I'm not able to see the cab and the seller knows nothing about it. Thanks for the info!
