Subject: [Mellotronists] Mellotron on Ebay

I don't know, but I reckon it looks a nice example...from the outside! If it's as good inside then I would have thought the price was about right. But there again I'm not likely to want to buy it am I?
There's a wreck of a tron, Ex Strawbs circa 1978, which has just sold on Ebay here in the UK for 770 GBP, whats that? About 1400 USD? And believe me it really was in a mess. Doubtless it will become Streetly fodder. They'll soon breath new life into the great machine.

Hi Andy and gang ,   That M400 ex-Strawbs was purchased by one of our List members.  Was covered in
layers of paint, applied by brush I'm told.......   Not impossible to repair.... Cheers, -- JK
