The Mellotron Group

Sounds a little high when an M4000 minus the headaches of a used machine is $7050 and an M5000 is $12,533.

In the video, the adjusting screws look like they are adjusted all the way down (the eBay ad shows them normal height).  The resulting sound has lots of keyclick, and considerable hum.  Wonder what that means, is the hum from the amp, cable, or the 'tron?
