They are saying at this time that the price will be about $2500 USD.  It would be a lot more valuable for the purists to hear the instrument without effects, and played by somebody with Mellotron technique instead of a wiggly plastic synth keyboard technique, but I still think it may be as close as you can get to the real thing without having to jump through hoops.  At least until somebody takes me up on my idea of a digital Mark II from a couple of years ago...

I know this has been mentioned before, but the mp3 demos are now available 
 
What do we think? On the face of it, the overall sound is pretty impressive. But there's so much reverb being used, I can't tell.
It will be interesting to see what price it sells for.
I wonder what the origin of the recordings were?
For us, the original machines will always be the most desirable of instruments.
But for those out on the road.........
Interesting..
Cheers.
