Subject: Re: [Mellotronists] Chamberlin 300 on Ebay

From: lsf5275@...

So,
 
What do you want. The Chamberlin that 'might' have been in the room when Mack the Knife was recorded, ( I have listened at least 50 times and I can't hear it). Or The Mellotron that was in the room for thousands of happy fans.
 
Lets see.
 
Mellotron             Lots of spare parts that will most probably NEVER need replacing... But are available. Provenance irrefutable.
 
Chamberlin 300    Some indefinable parts that may be available from some cheesy seller that defines his sale by bad mouthing someone that may have owned it previously? Last month Vincent Gallo told me that it was still his machine. Isn't that strange? I see a law suit. For the ignorant. This thing is a nightmare. I could work on it, so could Jerry. Still, all you end up with is a liability.
 
Comments please.
