Title: Another duo is saved
Post by: pressed on July 25, 2017, 12:38:29 PM

I just want to thank Keith Courage publicly for re-capping my American Duo.  He did a fantastic job, and it works like new (maybe better).   :dance:

If you have a Duo and you are putting off doing the recap yourself (as I was), send it to him and you will get your precious console back in a few days new and improved.  I had purchased the kit from Console 5 as I do have soldering skills, but I felt I wanted to trust this to someone who has experience with these consoles.  I'm really glad I did this.  Anyway, that is all.   :)

Congrats on saving a Duo! All those surface mounted caps are not easy to remove lol good call on sending it off.  I'm always impressed by these guys on here that re-cap these all the time.

Grats pressed.  Warms my heart to hear about your Duo getting some lovin'.  Duos are to be pampered and worshipped.  Enjoy!
