Well,
 
My friend Jim bought it. Looks like it will be coming here to the  "Mellotron 
slum" for me to work on. Ohh goody!

+ $1000 to get it to sound right?  Probably a good deal for the buyer.
Getting everything on the control panel working properly might be a
challenge.  (four pre-amps?)  

50/50 chance this is the Strange Advance white 4 Trk.  Robert Laughton
has the other white one.  What happened to the blue one and the red one?

Clay

nope. The Stange Advance 4 trk was sold to Kean by
Drew Arnott (they're buddies) who GIFTED it to Robert
Lawton who sold it to Rio.

Hi Mark and Gang,  Thanks for helping sort this out.
I read your follow-up posting too late after writing my entry.
....Had a  "senior moment"..heh-heh ....

Hey Frank #2, since you're acquainted with the buyer of the
eBay Maytag, can you provide us with its  s/n ??

Streetly also worked on the Strange Advance/RAL/Ryo Sekene
4-Track.    Wonder how many bruised knuckles and scrapes were
the result ?

In retrospect, if the 4-Track were available as an M400 retrofit install,
prob. would have done helluva lot better....That's 25 yr.old hindsight.

Cheers, -- JK  (Got a Maytag dishwasher, good for alum. Tron parts....)

ASAP

To get it shipped, we could use a little help. Anyone in the area?
