Hi Andrew,

Don’t think the tron will be for sale anytime soon. :-) In those beat club clips, their Mellotron is still white. At some point they (very badly) painted it black, as you can see in the Foo Fighters clip I posted. It also has quite a few cigarette marks on it, unfortunately. One on the keys, and ‘repaired’ with something that looks like tippex… And obviously it is missing the power switch cap.

Where will you be in NL?

Ben
