Hi Duncan and everybody,

What the blazes is correct !  If Wakeman had seen this thing,
he'd surely have set fire to it, as he did with one of his Trons.

Note the separate preamp circuits for EACH note !
This machine might come in handy in a radio station,
for pre-programmed SFX or whatever they record on those
8-Tracks .

The MiniTron......What a hoot !  Cheers, JK

Cor!  What a find! Nice one.

I beg to differ on the genetic heritage however..........this beastie
looks more like Mr Biro's original rather than a second generation
Birotron. And anyway they were usually too pissed to breed.
(should have sold one to that short lived band Brewer's Droop - anyone
recall them?) It could, however, be a 'throwback' . Nice shiny box 
though.......
