MONEYPIT - Mellotron Owners Needing Excessive Yen for Purchases for
Improving their 'Trons - held ∗two∗ get-togethers this summer.
Mellotron Professor Jerry Korb reworked M400 #310 for Dave "Zappaboggs"
Schwartz and M400 #500 for Bernie Kornowicz.
We visited Dave's house in New Jersey for the unveiling of #310, and we had
a lot of fun and a great BBQ---and a special guest.
For #500 it meant a trip to the Mellotron Ranch in Vermont to visit the
Korbs. So...What was under the paint on Bernie's machine? Could it be
stripped and stained, as he wanted---or was it a big let-down?
