Re: Frank Samagaio's gear. Items for sale.

2011-09-09 by lsf5275@aol.com

As I write this, I am sitting in my hotel room here in San  Diego,  
California. I flew out here for two purposes. As I'm sure all of you are aware,  
Frank Samagaio passed away some months back. When he died, his sister acquired 
 his music gear and the rest of his personal possessions. I am now the new 
owner  of Frank's Mark II and I am trying to help his sister liquidate his 
other music  gear. Needless to say, the Mark II was his most valued 
possession and I feel  fortunate to  have acquired it. I say this recognizing that my 
opportunity  to acquire it came at the loss of someone I considered a 
friend and for whom  this Mellotron meant a great deal.
 
I have a list of Frank's other gear. He had a small studio that he ran from 
 the first floor of his home. There is a lot of stuff. His family has 
decided to  keep his rather valuable guitar collection, but there are monitors, 
some other  keyboards, keyboard controllers, microphones, power amps, a 
couple of Akai  samplers, attenuators, etc.
 
Does anyone in this group live in the San Diego area? If so, please contact 
 me off list if you can help us with moving some of this equipment. Listed 
below  is most of what he had. All of his tapes and recordings are being 
kept by  his family.
 
Some of this may need clarification. If anyone is interested in any of  
this, please contact me off list with an offer. Any fair offer will be  
considered. Everything looks to be in very good condition and Frank's sister  would 
take anything back if it were for some reason deemed faulty.
