I'm new to the board, and new to Mesa's. I locked up a Dual Recto 2 channel that came into Guitar Center used and I'm curious about it. I fell in love with an identical amp at Island Guitars in Honolulu about 10 or so years ago. I plugged my Les Paul into it and was bowled over by the sheer awesome fat warm tube sound that came from it when cranked. So, when I saw the used one sitting there I immediately chiseled on the guy I deal with there and he cut it loose for $900. I paid most of it right there and will pay the rest later this month if not sooner.
My question... I have the serial number and can't find anyplace where I can look up when the amp was manufactured. Also, I have a Digitech 2101 preamp that I plan on running in the loop for effects. What's the best way to accomplish this? Last, I plan on having the amp tech I like here locally go through the thing and give it a thorough tuneup just in case and I'll probably throw a lower gain tube in V1 and possibly get a set of EL-34's to try out.
So if anyone has any ideas about where to look up my serial number it would be greatly appreciated.
