Mellotronists

Hello all, Well I have been following this group for some time and 
would like to say that finally after much hard work and waiting, I am 
officialy an owner of a brand new Mellotron MK VI! I have got to say 
that , having been a fan for so long and having never played let 
alone touched a real Mellotron, It was like a dream come true! Sounds 
amazing and plays like a dream!! Its funny cause I kept telling 
myself that the first thing I would play was "Strawberry Fields 
Forever" butI was so shook up about actually touching the thing, I 
opted for the much more simplistic, yet eaqually powerfull, "In the 
Court of THe Crimson King".. It was then I realized how truly amazing 
the Machine was.. Markus Resch really outdid himself, and I am happy 
to be part of the mellotron comunity as a player and not just a 
dreamer as I once was only a week ago.. Not to discourage the 
dreamers of course! 
So with that out of the way I wold like to ask the group this 
question: What Mellotron sounds are being used on the Strawberry 
Fields Demo" on the Anthology? I know that there is brass but it 
sounds at times like violins too so I cant really tell.. Also, what 
tapes are being used for the pitch swoops ? Flute? Guitar? On the 
Anthology version of Penny Lane, is the solo oboe a mellotron? 
Thanks for your help!
