hello all, thank you for your response. to address all your queries --- firstly the mellotron was used on the road in both my band and the subsequent owners band in and around the north of England/Sheffield etc. as far as I was aware melltorons were finished with the wood carcass painted/sprayed white not covered in melamine. this is certainly the case with this model as it was covered in the stuff whilst in my ownership. melamine is a thin plastic like veneer applied to all sorts of products as a hard wearing protective finish. the machine had the normal standard flutes/violin/cello tape rack and also choirs and something else on a spare rack. I do not know the serial number unfortunately. It was bought from me by a chap nicknamed Horse (drummer) and used in his progressive rock band in Doncaster.around 1980 ish. it had a home made white padded cover fluted at the front. thanks for your help. If streetly are reading this further to my enquiries a few months ago I am still searching for this particular machine which is of sentimental importance to me - can you help?
