[snakej200]

Does anyone konw if the back panel on a 1960a is the same size as the back panel on the 1960b???

Unsure if it helps you but i just ordered a new back for my 1935 cab, if the 1960 and 1935 backs are interchangeable then the size you need is 710mm x 725mm. Just shoot some messages to MG cab sellers and see if those numbers line up?

Does anyone konw if the back panel on a 1960 is the same size as some of the other cheaper mg cabs?

No. MG cabs are smaller.

No. MG cabs are smaller.

how about the back panel on a 1960b cab? will that fit on a 1960a? I just found one local to me that's the perfect candidate

I think the back of the A & B are the same.
Can you ask the seller to measure?

I did but I don't have a ton of faith in his measurement skills - he sounded very unsure of himself!

Just checked Sweetwater's site. 1960A and 1960B are both 32.68" tall and 29.92" wide, so the back panels have to be the same size.

A and B back panels are identical. I know because I replaced both on two cabinets, changing them from MDF to ply, and stereo to pinstripe mono jackplates. So I made two back boards, absolutely identical. They fit either cabinet perfectly right down to the screw holes.

Measure and take a photo of the tape.

Our species has lost the ability to read/understand/utilize a tape measure and/or other measuring devices???? We are surely doomed! What's next? The skill of counting to ten, or being able to discern the difference between two and four frets? Where does the insanity end?
