Re: [Mellotronists] Demagging Heads

2003-09-19 by Rick Blechta

Hi All!

I think this is a topic worthy of comment by those repairers, restorers 
and general gaddabouts of all things Mellodramatic to address. After 
all, they've demagnetized everything they can get their hands on. Well, 
JB should comment. That Martinge character knows nuffink.

So guys, what is the correct way to demag tron head blocks? And do you 
do it differently when you're in Hollywood? And does Julia Roberts look 
in person a lot like she does on the screen?

Rick
