[Q] A500 rooted but no custom recovery. Detailed info inside. topic

Several months ago, dived into the adventure of rooting my Acer A500. Long story short, I did not complete whatever guide I was following, due to an error message that I could not get around. I did complete through the rooting part, and SuperSU by Chainfire is installed and will grant root access to apps. I tried to install CWMs ROM manager to find out that I don't have a custom recovery installed. After some research, I don't think that my bootloader is unlocked either. Please understand that I use these terms loosely as I really don't know how this all works. I have tried reading through guides and tutorials, but this stuff is only partially clicking with me. I have found some information but none of it seems to apply to my specific hardware and problem. I am gonna post some version numbers below and hopefully someone will be able to tell me where I left off and point me in the right direction. Also, attempts to boot into recovery result in dead android with red triangle exclamation.

Again, I do not know what guide or tools I used to root, but I know that there was more to do. Any ideas or thoughts?
