So the talk about being difficult to work on is correct?
In the early 90’s my teacher had a mkIII (or was it 4). I’ve seen a few. Ands with those and they sound great.

As for working on them, it’s probably like new Marshall’s (and most amps), printed circuit boards with small tracks. Possible to work on, but a pain in the bum.

Ive spoken to a few techs who don’t like working on Marshall’s post JCM900. Circuit boards to me don’t necessarily sound worse, they are just done for mass production and unlike point to point, not always repairable.

I’d rather by a hand wired clone by ceriatone, although I don’t think they do a Mesa clone.
