Hang on, Lets look at this...

Have you fixed the offending Marshall Cab Jack?

Did it actually Short, or did a wire break and was it and an Open circuit?

From an Electrical standpoint, a 0.1 Ohm short is a lot closer to 4/8/16 Ohms compared to an Open Circuit, and is less likely to let the magic smoke out of the Output Tranny.


I agree with @Dan Gleesak : pull all the preamp tubes from the PI forward and see which one, if any, is a guilty bastard. Starting with the Phase Invertor and working your way to the V1
 
Yes I fixed the jack. I didn’t solder the connectors but I did squeeze them with needle noses… hard to get them back on the input jack so should be fine.
 
I just assumed that it fried the ot because the connectors were barely touching so I assumed it was a no load situation. I was playing and the volume dropped and hiss 🐍

If you Ohm out the OT.... just Ohm Meter on the speaker jack of the amp... what do you get?

if it is Hissing, that sound is coming from somewhere, through that OT to the speaker
