Subject: Re: [newmellotrongroup] [Mellotronists] Refurb and FULL repair of M-400 Mellotrons

From time to time?  Hell, as it is now, I get unsolicited calls at 3:30 AM in a muffled voice suggesting I recheck the alignment on head number 5 and the corresponding tape for "Oxide Deficiency", followed by a CLICK and the dial tone.

I don't think that's permanent, though. Jerry indicated to me that he can do restores after he completes his move, some time next year. I hope Frank gets back into it, too. They both have good parts inventories for the do-it-yourselfers.
