Thanks, I actually just picked one up from The Source today. I was hoping I would be able to just screw in the top from the holder I just bought but it looks like I'll need to replace it all. Hopefully I can find a tech who knows what they're doing.

The fuse holder in my dual rec has always been pretty finnicky, and after playing my last show, I transported the head from the venue to my house, and when I went to plug it in I realized the fuse holder is gone. It must have fell out somewhere along the way, and I can no longer use it as there...

Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me with this fuse holder problem. The past couple times I've taken my dual rec head to venues to play shows the fuse holder has been popping out of the amp. For whatever reason, it just won't stay in, and when it comes out its near impossible to get it to...

Hey all, I've never really done much home recording other than with my line 6 toneport, but my band is looking at recording a home demo in the near future and I hoped maybe I could get some suggestion on mixers. I'd really like something I can plug into my computer and just start recording...

Just for anyone wondering, I went out and bought a midi cable and it still isn't working. I think I'm probably gonna have to try out another pedal or something. I sure as hell hope its not the head itself.

I was thinking it might be the cord. Where would I find another one exactly like this cord?

I've been having a problem with my dual rectifier as of late. The footswitch to change channels won't work at all. I have both knobs in the back set to footswitch but its like, not even recognizing it. Anyone know what my problem might be?

I'm using an MXR KFK 10 band eq pedal. By power, I assume you mean by battery or ac adapter. I am using an AC adapter so everything should work fine. I use it in my other amp all the time.

I think I might be having a problem with my effects loop in my Dual rec. I've never tried a pedal in my effects loops before, so I decided to try my eq pedal. I plugged the pedal in the loop, made sure the amp was assigned to foot switch, made sure the 2 loop controls were on 100% and made sure...

That sucks. My problem was actually that I'm a dumbass and didn't realize I had it set to bypass loop. I got it working now. Hopefully you can get yours working too.

So I tried out my dual rectifier at practice today for the first time. I've only jammed on it a bit at home and never felt it necessary to try the effects loop or footswitch, but when I plugged in my eq pedal and footswtich, neither worked. The footswitch didn't light up and the eq just didn't...

There are 2 mesas and there are 2 from a place called "Tubestore" so thats the brand I guess. They don't really have a brand name on them that I can see.

I took out the rectifier tubes and set it to silicone diodes and presto! I'm in mesa heaven right now. This is amazing. Thanks for the help!

6l6s and 5U4GB. I didn't even realize there were 2 types of rectifier tubes... I'm really learning a lot from having a real tube amp. Even if its frustrating as hell right now.

Oh by the way, in case it is my rectifier tubes that are the problem (which i very much hope is the case) are they expensive? How much would a pair run me?

Ah, great info. Thanks a lot I'll definitely try that if I can find some fuses.

Hm, ok. Well, I have been trying different tube combinations (taking the middle ones out to try as few as possible) with using the silicon diodes, and twice it didn't work. Ill try the other combinations tomorrow and if it doesn't work, then I don't know. I guess I'll have to take the amp in to...

I keep blowing fuses in the dual rectifier I just bought (used). The seller told me its more than likely a problem with one of the power tubes (he said thats 99% of the time what causes a blown fuse) but I was wondering what people here might think. Is there an easy way to check if a power tube...
