Mellotronists

I'm looking for any comments about these tapes.  
Any thoughts/opinions?

Now how about from people that actually own the tapes?



I had an urge to hear some tubular bell type sounds and my regular 
array of synths (mostly analog, with a PPG, Waldorf Wave, and DX-1 
thrown in) just didn't do it for me.
 
Thanks
