Then MkII #240 must have still been there as well (before Erik sold it).

I have played it at the Bomb factory.  David Kean showed us around the place and it was a head spinning experience. Seeing Raymond Scotts Clavivoz and all...

 

But I think it was hearing and playing a MK II (the #123 ?) for the first time and being blown away by that and then...hearing the Riviera. The Riviera sounds and looks incredible.  It made the MK II sound tinny and and extremely un musical...

Probably talking to myself here, or at least I am
replying to myself!

I know a bit more about this now, there were 2 made
but the photo of the other one had pedals as well. I
assume this would costs $20-30000 or more. I
understand they had 1 inch 8 track tapes without a
cycling system so presumably it might work and be
fairly "reliable". Anyone know more or played one?
