Mellotronists

Hi to all in Mellotron land!
I visited this Tron today at the sellers' domicile. It is currently in 
unplayable condition wih many notes not sounding. The remaining tapes 
have serious wow and flutter issues. I would expect that this 
instrument will need a complete refurbishing from Professor Korb or his 
ilk. The tapes currently residing in the machine are MKII Brass (A), 
String Section (B) and 8 Voice Choir (C). The seller has a second tape 
set ( I noticed at least one scotch tape repair to a tape) but he was 
not willing to install it to audition the sounds. He says he has owned 
this Tron for many years but doesn't know what sounds are on the second 
frame?? The exterior has numerous nicks and dings etc... but re-
finishable by a professional.
