Re: [newmellotrongroup] A fixer upper from hell

2012-06-13 by lsf5275@aol.com

No Frank can't. Frank is exhausted from  trying to get ready for NEARfest 
and once it's done, Frank is taking the rest of  the summer to spend with his 
wife, sister and his nieces. Oh, and trying to earn  some money. Then Frank 
has a waiting list starting in the fall.
 
Besides, it's too much money, although I  have no doubt that someone will 
buy it for way too much money. Thanks for the  endorsement, though.

Inside doesn't look too bad, better than mine, but the  cabinet looks 
wrecked, worse than mine.

At least it has an SMS motor controller.  Quite a low  serial number.  
Maybe it has a brass capstan.
 
It's certainly rough.
