It will be down to the speakers. As a rough guide a 1960a have 75's, 1960ax have g12m's and a 1960av have V30's. It would be worth checking what speakers you have in you're cab, more than likely to be 75's unless someone has changed them. Was the hired one new? new speakers can be horrible until they are broken in some can take a long time before they sound nice and warm imo.
Then some amplifiers use a bit of negative feedback, others don't and that will have an effect on the cone's damping (a fact exploited by the "resonance" control on some "cough" well appointed amps!)
If you have a pair of ear defenders it is instructive to wear them whilst giving a 4x12 the full monte. You will hear all the creaks and groans of the cabinet!

Chris.. yup totally...
I use a pair of stock 1960b cabs... I dial my tone into them.. when I tour I ask for these cabs on my tech rider.. when I arrive at the venue sometimes I get what I ask for, sometimes I don't.. most common is getting a pair of 1960a cabs..
sure there are differences, but to may ears they're not "huge".. nothing that a squirt of EQ couldn't deal with.. that said, when I've been provided with 1960a cabs, I've not bothered making changes to the EQ and been perfectly happy.. even though some are a little brighter, some a little bassier.. my point is I guess that the differences have not seemed so great to me that I've felt the need to do something about it..
