Seriously, this is a good subject for discussion. Original (or at least perceived original) Edison grill cloths I've seen range from a light brown to a medium to light green-brown color. All were natural "earth tone" colors and all were a very light weight silk, so as to be acoustically transparent. How does this agree (or disagree) with others' experience? Anyone have a source for a correct looking material?
