Marshall 1936V and 1936 cabs

[ClintN667]

I've always heard that the 1936 cab was MDF. Looking at Sweetwater's page it says its actually finger jointed plywood. Have any of you guys had one recently?

They changed the construction from MDF to plywood in the early 2010's.

They also changed the backs of 1960's from MDF to plywood around the same time.

Are you sure the 1960 cabs have plywood backs now? They haven't had that since what, the early '70s?

Few days back I got 1936 and it is really all plywood.
But I’m not sure about 1960 beside A/BHW series.
