Congratulations!

> Hello Mellotronlings!
> I have been on something of a hiatus after selling EMI104S some three
> years ago (or more, it's hard to remember).  I've found it very difficult
> to immerse myself in mellotronia, primarily due to intense jealousy and
> regret after having to sell for finacial reasons, something many of us can
> relate to.
> But no more!  I have just obtained M400 #376, a former Beatlemania touring
> tron belonging to producer Paul Kolderie (Radiohead, Pixies, Dinosaur Jr.,
> etc. and owner of the former Fort Appache Studios and the recently closing
> Camp Street Studios in Boston). I've had the pleasure of working on her on
> many occasions and when I heard Paul was closing Camp Street, I
> immediately placed dibs on it.
> Although a bit rough around the edges, it plays beautifully with a stable
> SMS3 control board.  I plan on giving it much love as it's been a touch
> neglected, and eventually a full ground-up restoration.  
> As any former tron owner could relate to, there has been a significant gap
> in my studio's arsenal, not to mention my tendencies toward tinkering.
>  Somehow, I feel complete and felt the need to share.
> It's good to be back.
> Cheers!
