the "tape play organ"
2008-02-28 by Chris Dale
Well I finally found out what the tape play organ
is.
It turns out it's a Mellotron M400 painted red and
not very neatly!
The front panel doesn't remove, and it looks like
the lid has been replaced.
So let's say
it's in average condition. But the motor turns over, and one really
good thing ---there's an SMS2 in there which saves money on CMC-10
replacement.
The pitch knob seems disconnected from the motor
though. It doesn't seem to have an effect. The serial number looks to be 1253.
It's for sale, so anyone wanting a
Mellotron please get in touch.
I'll be happy to send pics / answer more questions
for anyone interested.
