'68 Selmer Zodiac 50w combo or '66 Selmer Treble'n'Bass 50w head with 4x12" cab with WEM Audiomaster reverb mixer and WEM Copicat tape echo.  My 400 seems to like Fender Twins too but I've never had one of my own.

I have a Leslie 145 but for some reason I've never liked  Mellotron sounds through Leslies- something slightly seasick about it which I don't experience with organs or guitars through rotary speakers. There y'go.

Love and Scones,

My tron sits in the studio, but I'll reamp through a Rivera designed Fender Concert.   Soon the leslie 145 will be restored, so that willl become my next overused reamping sound :>)

I usually use a Fender Champion 600 and/or a Vox Night Train with Celestion blue 1 X 12 cab.
