Tron for Sale

2004-05-27 by maxwellhiller

Hey all,
   Thought I'd offer it here first.  I, unfortunately, need to part with my mellotron in order 
to generate some cash.  It's in pretty good shape, other than a few minor issues.  First, the 
highest third of the keys are warped.  Not enough that they stick, or affect playing at all, 
but they are visibly crooked.  Second, the tone knob isn't working.  This is obviously an 
easy fix.  I never really missed it, so I didn't bother.  I've got two tape frames, both in good 
shape, as are the tapes.  One has Cello, Three Violins, and another string sound--not 
positive which one it is.  It's been awhile since I pulled out the other, so if you're 
interested, I'll dig it out and find the sounds.  I'd probably be willing to just sell one of the 
tape frames/tapes if someone was interested.  I'd like $3500 for the lot, including a 
framed mellotron ad (don't ask me why--wherever the tron goes, it goes).  Email me offlist 
if you're interested.

Thanks,
Max
