Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: Mellotronists

Hi Gang. I bought my Mellotron "brand new" sometime around 1987 or
so from a dealer in Jackson, Tennessee...for $500. A couple of years
ago I demag'ed the heads, cleaned it up a bit and tried it out a
little. But, since I do not have a studio set-up, I did not use it
at all. However, I plan to soon, to add violins and some flutes to
my elevator-style piano music. (www.donspiano.com) <--Shameless plug.

I am not sure where the serial number is recorded. On part of the
metal frame from the top, there is the number "1345." Looks like it
was scratched into the metal with something. Is this the serial
number? Any idea of the birthdate?

Also, is another convention happening soon?

I rarely post and often get behind in the reading but thanks for all
the info you all give. some of us ARE learning!
