Hello!
Just a quick post to introduce myself.
My name is Robert and I am a mellotron junkie.
I'm also known as sdzbx7yr or
Roddenberry in many other groups.
I have a prog-related website at
www.progmontreal.com and I am also one
of the organizers of the Montreal prog fest
(www.fmpm.net).
The reason I joined is that I have always been
fascinated by the mellotron, its sound and its
mechanics, and it is my dream/goal/fantasy to
one day acquire one of these cantankerous old
keyboards.
Then again, i'd like to own a Mustang '67 but
it's way out of my league, as an original mellotron
would i'm afraid.
So i'll be looking into any insight by the members
of this forum to either refurbish a dreadfully
messed-up old 'tron, or find a way to acquire the
parts to build one from scratch. I am very handy
with electronics and mechanics.
Anyway, glad to be here and I hope to share
the wisdom of the members of this prestigious group.
Thanks
Robert
