Both had 421-N clearly marked on the microphone connector.

I do agree the white ones sound much better than new. They are truly fantastic on electric guitar amps or Rhodes suitcase, and of course toms.
421-N was definitely a Tuchel connector.

If a 421-N had an XLR it was modified later to change the Tuchel for am XLR.

There were still Mk.I black versions.
