Here is a demonstration video to help you determine what Mesa Boogie Dual Recto (http://gear-monkey.com/forum/amplification/post-your-1992-pre1000-dual-recto-here-t166.0.html) that you have. Is your Recto Revision C, D, E, F, or G? We know REV C and D are pre500 (up to R-0503). And pre1000 also use MKIII (Mark III) OT and Choke Transformers... what Recto do you have?

interesting video :-D one word the blue "batteries" are electrolytic capacitors :-D not batteries, although they do hold a MASSIVE charge, so no i wouldn't be poking them with your fingers until they have been dis-charged hehe, if you do, add me to your will and leave me all your guitar stuff before ya try it :-D

I've been corrected by a few others for my slang... Next info video, I'll be sure to use the proper terminology. :confused:
