Re: [newmellotrongroup] Ebay Chamberlin Music Master...

In fairness, having viewed the 600 at the guy's studio, he does  have a few 
pieces of vintage recording gear and amps that I'd sure like to have  in MY 
studio.  The previous owner lives nearby and also had a MkII (also  not in very 
good condition) at the time he owned this 600, along with a  small R.A. Moog 
modular synth, a Studer A800 24-track and an old EMI board  (which he claimed 
came from Abbey Road).  Both are the offspring of rich  parents who have $ to 
burn and both have a grossly overinflated opinion as to  what these respective 
pieces of equipment is worth.

the  seller's previous transactions are sometimes a clue to validity.
if  somebody has been selling exclusively ceramic knick-knacks and
bric-a-brac  for 5 years, then suddenly turns up with a chamberlin
or an ems synthi,  it's possibly a stolen account. this seller does
not have a lot of  activity, and much of it is stretched over a long
period of time, makingit  hard to determine what they have been dealing
in - the last tranaction was  incomplete and was for a lexicon 480L at
over $6000. hard to say, but i'd  be wary for sure...
