Subject: optigan recommendation?

From: "Michael Peters" <mpeters@...>

"Optigan - the poor man's mellotron" - there's one currently on Ebay and I'm
wondering if it's worth it. What do you think? They say that an Optigan is
basically a toy and sounds crappy. Does it? The only thing I ever really
heard played on an Optigan was Steve Hackett's piece 'Sentimental
Institution'. I kind of liked that sound and it didn't sound very crappy.
