No there aren't any photos of mine on the site. It was stored in a warehouse for 10 years before I got it and was full of mouse shit, even after cleaning it still exerts a strange fascination on our cat. The cabinet is out of shape, when I retire I might rebuild it. I don't use it much these days I prefer to use samples either Redtron or M-tron pro. Mine still has a cm10 and I'm too impatient to wait 10 minutes for it to settle down to only being slightly out of tune. :) cheers Mark |
| :-) It is banged up from touring. You can see one of the cigarette burn marks on the leftmost key, covered with some white-out. And if the stories are true, Earth&Fire's keyboard player stored it some sort of attic above a chicken farm or something like that. When I got it, it sure smelled that way. It was dirty inside and out. The tapes were still in reasonable shape though. I'm just keeping it running, nothing more. But I really should overhaul the whole thing. On the other hand, it has its charm this way. Are there any photo's of yours in the group's photo library?

I was wondering what was up with that... I'll put up a picture of my own Mellotron. But if anybody has another nice picture, just send it to me. (We could change it every so often.)
