Loop Mod

[Mowglimike]

Hi all. I have this Dual Rec head (serial number - R06xx). I've been reading about the effects loop mod and it looks pretty straight forward. I opened mine yesterday and the wiring looks completely different than pictures I've seen here. There is only a send knob on the back. All the wires go back to the circuit board. Is it still possible to do the loop mod?

I'm trying to figure out how to insert a picture but in the meantime I figured I would just post the question.

Thanks!

I can't seem to figure out the picture thing. Here's a link to the photo http://flic.kr/p/9mrKNJ

You already have a serial loop, so there's no need to do any modification to it.

+1 The lack of a mix control is the sign of a serial loop.

What are the issues you are having that made you want to modify your loop?

Thank you. I wasn't sure which it was and appreciate you clearing that up. I just sold a Roadster and have fallen back to my Dual Rec as my primary amp. I've only been playing around with it for a few days now but I read something about throwing an EQ pedal in the loop and using it as a solo boost. I tried it and it doesn't really boost anything. It changes the tone based on the EQ settings but every time I try to dial it in and increase the volume I get a loud squeal. No guitar signal just squeal. I am sure I am doing something wrong and need to spend more time with it but that's what made me start looking at the loop mod thing.
