I passed your name to Greg Walker, Frank....although I can't imagine he doesn't already know of you. It would make sense that Wobbler and some of the other bands would need an M400 but I don't know what the plan is.....

Someone needs to contact me. Here are photos of the just completed one, taken at dawn.
and right after the Anglagard set, backstage.
The cabinet before stuffing the works into it.
And this is a photo of keyboard assembly. I'm dressing out the keys and putting them in place. No pressure pads yet. This was Wednesdaynight or early Thursday morning. No windows in the shop.

Nice Mellotron work at NearFest Apocalypse by Frank Stickle. The instruments looked and sounded beautiful.
I did notice that two M400s sounded much better than the M-Faux-K. I actually could tell the difference and I was surprised because ROMplers tend to be stage efficient. Not the case at all this time.It truly is a fact: there is no real substitute for a real Mellotron - NovatronSorry we couldn't meet up Frank everybody was talking to everybody else, socializing etc...They are going to need Mellotrons at Farfest, my next festival. The lineup is out of teenage dreams.gw--Gino Wong BirgeloBSComm, BSEE, CG, ReRED, CSEC
