I've got one, though not for sale. But, I am looking for someone who can repair the reverb of my optigan... can't fix it myself... Dieter --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, tronbros@... wrote:

Any thoughts about the use of the Mellotron and Mini Moog pictured next to Greg? My first thought was Crimson then I looked at the Palmer logo on the kick. One of the comments states "I believe I read it was for doing Abaddon's Bolero live. Too many parts for Keith alone. I don't think they ever did it live beyond this time period.(1972).

From the Prog Archives: "ELP used an M400 during the Trilogy tour but was played by Greg Lake for some special effects. The Greg Lake website used to had a pic from that tour where you clearly see the white M400 mellotron but it was removed a long time ago. The legend tells that the mellotron burned after 3-4 concerts and the idea of reusing it was dropped."
