Faceplate & Handles for Audio Research Classic 60


Hey does anyone know if it's possible or where I can obtain a new faceplate and/or handles for my Audio Research Classic 60? I've spent the last couple of days searching everywhere. The face plate isn't all that bad of shape but my handles got scratched when I was stupid enough to slide it while having it upright adjusting the bias & checking the servos.

I'll take the silver or black either one.

I'm thinking if I can't find the faceplate at least maybe the handles would be for sale somewhere.

If not I'll try to lightly buff the scratches out of the handles and repaint them.

Faceplate is currently the silver one and it might be able to be cleaned up some too but I didn't want to risk damaging it even worse.

Anyway thanks.

That's great news about the faceplate. Since the handles contain no lettering or silk screening, they can be easily painted or better yet, anodized.
I have a new pair of black handles. They came with a CL60 I bought in 1998 or so. They were all wrapped in bubble wrap, but somehow I found one floating around the bedroom sans wrap. Not sure where the other is, but if you are interested in one or two black handles let me know.
Ok thanks! I've ordered the ones from Mouser that someone showed me above but if they look different when I get them I'll take you up on it.

I need to keep it original.
