The rash of PCB dead amps I've been fixing all the major brands if it takes more than two hours to fix land fill material

This thing will have basically no moving parts other than pots. If it gives it up after a decade, it will be so out of date I don't care. Especially since I do not work on my own stuff except tube and cap changes. It doesn't bother me in the least.
That mk III could be decades old. So if something dies at that stage it has paid it's debt.
 
No issues. Voltages are all within spec. Everything looks good.

The only "issue" we had was the hot rodding "recipe" was not engineered for long term longevity, prompting @syscokid and @ivan H to take steps to reduce the voltages.
I didnt read through all of it just saw the title about issues after the mod -- glad its not to serious I did like my origin ... but the Marshall Master lead 12 is frankly all the Marshall I need.
 
Good to hear from you again, eSGEe! Been some time since I had seen you post!

Lovely little beastie .....-- wait no --no--sod that-- its a limey turd (it has no tubes -- sorry-- it cant sound good WTF was MARSHALL thinking ?!?!?! it cant have lasted since the early 90's nope ... its had to have failed by now your just IMAGINING the tone!!! since its poop pure poop -- set fire to it and do us all a favor) ;)

How does a real tube amp "feel" you ask??????

This sounds Great! Reminds me of my Orange, SS is here to stay.

I would immediately torch it in place... if it didn't represent such an immediate risk of spreading to the rest of the house... maybe I'll use the yard's firepit. Nah, I'm too lazy to carry it down the stairs and out to the yard. Too bad. It'll have to stay put... Sounding great, was playing my Dean VX that I just "reconstituted", not an hour ago. Been practicing a couple of tunes that I had started long ago but had put aside... :dood::dood::pound-hand:
