The Mellotron Group

Hello Chris

List of my current gear:

Mellotron M400 #126
Vako Orchestron Model C #3306
Mattel Optigan Conquistador, which still needs lots of work (replace reverb unit, and thorough cleaning)
Korg MS-10
Hammond H-112
Philicorda GM762-2
Arp Solina string Ensemble mark II stereo
Hohner Pianet
Fender Rhodes 73 mark I
Yamaha B3-S

Yamaha Maple custom
Art&Lutherie handcrafted 12string
Johnson Resonator
and some "normal" guitars, amps, keys, effects...

And currently my money savings are eagerly waiting for another Orchestron, talentmaker or a Mellotron MKI / MKII / MKV or M5000 (if this last one would be made) or Chamberlin - any model! :-), or a Bugatti Veyron. :-)

Cheers,

Dieter,
President, Founder, Chairman and Leader of the Round Table of the Belgian Committee.

easter egg: the first 3 people who don't have access to good belgian beer and send me their address I'll send a package of three of the finest belgian beers. not kidding!
