Hey folks!
I know this is going to open some debate,but I would love to get some serious
feedback/opinion on this quandry. Given a choice, what wouldbe the advantages of
owning a MK2 over a Chamberlin 600/660, and vice-versa? Whichone would you
pick and why? -Jack Younger E4/103S "The Bastard"Greetings Jack and everyone,
I own an early Mellotron (MK1 #124), and wouldn't part with dear "Julia"
for all the tea in China (or beer in England) , but would love theopportunity
to "tinker" with a Musicmaster 600 . After all, the Mellotronwas derived
from that model. Chamberlin tapes had an interesting mix of SFXas well
as the lead sounds .One appeared on eBay a few years ago I believe . Their weakestlink
(pun intended) was/is the cycling system. The Musicmaster600 for me
would purely be a collector's /restorer's instrument for preservation.
While the MK2's are made to be played ........I cannot offer detailed tech insights on the Chamb-600 , only the MK2.
....Wish I could .......Cheers, -- JK -- (tinkering with 1960-era German SW radiosat the moment)
