It could be that the body is not positioned exactly, it was off the frame many years ago. As far as I know, the grille is not a repro, I got it at a swap meet many years ago. I had one of those repro grilles, it was about hopeless. I have it lined up better now but I think I may need to shim it over as Tom suggests.
