The later ones being pcb based, not as prone to “differences”. But, for the most part, never liked the later ones. Mid 73 and back being turret board much more probability of noise, oscillations etc. I had one early 73 100watt that sounded really good, it is the one in the Crying in the Rain video on my Youtube. Then I scored the 69 plexi 100 watt and that 73 went bye…even though the 73 sounded good, the 69 was WAY better.Well, I know you don't like bright....which is the very definition of a vintage Marshall. So there's that. Haha
I guess I'm just super lucky; I've never plugged into a Marshall, pre 1990 that didn't at least sound GOOD. Some are great.
At this point, over 60 and counting....but, only 3 NMVs so maybe there are more bad versions of those?
