This is  a fallacy.  Just what are all these problems other than those

Martin is correct. Mellotrons are not supposed to have problems. There are  
not supposed to be "wobblies" or stuck notes. A proper Mellotron should pull 
the  tapes through and deliver the sounds as intended. The character of a 
Mellotron  comes from its electronics, not its mechanicals.
