Clay (et al),
It went something like...
JB and myself have been tireless supporters of the original EMI tape used in
Mellotrons by Streetly. This stock had and still has the best drive
characteristics of all formulations. It will stabilise a machine that isn't
in the best shape and reduce wobblies significantly. The good news is that
after a dearth of this tape for the past five years we now have genuine EMI
stock available in 3/8" format.
So here's the deal..........
We are offering a tape amnesty. Send us the old middle C from your
troublesome tapes and we'll replace the full set at half price(plus p+p) on
original EMI stock. You can even change the selection. Please quote your
machine serial number when ordering. Thanks.
... which seems pretty reasonable to me, but what would I know ;-)
All the best,
Norm
