It's not "chipboard"! Harry and Richard had the cabinet parts made by a furniture company. It is a formica-ish laminate on fine cabinetry plywood. In fact, the pieces were marked to indicate those that were fit-checked together: If you've ever seen or heard of a Chamberlin called an "M-1-E" or something like that, the "E" is the marking to indicate the set of pieces that fit together among the batches sent over, as there would have been an A set, a B set, a C set, and a D set in that batch. As to the amount they're worth: 10' patch cord - $5.99 Ultimate Support table - $80.00 M2 of my very own - priceless Vance (one Chamberlin and 4 Crumars - I must be crazy!) -----Original Message----- From: Mellotronists@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Mellotronists@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of mellotrongirl Sent: Tuesday, March 07, 2006 5:41 PM To: Mellotronists@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Mellotronists] Re: Chamberlin prices-- The last Chamberlin M-1 like the one pictured I saw was offered a couple years ago at a set sale price of $5,000 from a music store in Minnesota (?) or somewhere in the upper Midwest/Great Lakes region. It seems it was offered for sale right here on Mellotronists. Did anyone we know get this one? Apparently, that one was in perfect running order. Cosmetically correct, I bet they are impossible to find...a keyboard skinned with wood grain over chipboard like Wal*Mart entertainment center furniture just doesn't look exactly mint after 40+ years. I wish one of these would drop in my lap at an affordable price (don't we all)...after a MkII and before a Hammond XK-1. I woulda said B-3 but don't have the space nor the ooomph to move it when hoovering the carpet. ___ np: Spektakel, s/t, 1974 SPONSORED LINKS Music <http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Music+instruments&w1=Music+instrume nts&w2=Instrument+music+online+store&w3=Online+music+instrument+store&w4 =Music+instrument+stores&w5=Keyboard+instrument&w6=Music+instrument+sale &c=6&s=174&.sig=CPr_nGdm0HrZDOmCSvlORA> instruments Instrument <http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Instrument+music+online+store&w1=Mu sic+instruments&w2=Instrument+music+online+store&w3=Online+music+instrum ent+store&w4=Music+instrument+stores&w5=Keyboard+instrument&w6=Music+ins trument+sale&c=6&s=174&.sig=aUiuQo0rylS4AkVhi_9y1A> music online store Online <http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Online+music+instrument+store&w1=Mu sic+instruments&w2=Instrument+music+online+store&w3=Online+music+instrum ent+store&w4=Music+instrument+stores&w5=Keyboard+instrument&w6=Music+ins trument+sale&c=6&s=174&.sig=eAqvzJoR_hr7vPj0UfDhcA> music instrument store Music <http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Music+instrument+stores&w1=Music+in struments&w2=Instrument+music+online+store&w3=Online+music+instrument+st ore&w4=Music+instrument+stores&w5=Keyboard+instrument&w6=Music+instrumen t+sale&c=6&s=174&.sig=-7d9BqhxK_fNg3TJyDmvcQ> instrument stores Keyboard <http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Keyboard+instrument&w1=Music+instru ments&w2=Instrument+music+online+store&w3=Online+music+instrument+store& w4=Music+instrument+stores&w5=Keyboard+instrument&w6=Music+instrument+sa le&c=6&s=174&.sig=4V9ffscLjQWBpJZcMsKYAg> instrument Music <http://groups.yahoo.com/gads?t=ms&k=Music+instrument+sale&w1=Music+inst ruments&w2=Instrument+music+online+store&w3=Online+music+instrument+stor e&w4=Music+instrument+stores&w5=Keyboard+instrument&w6=Music+instrument+ sale&c=6&s=174&.sig=-nN4RCDQxXY__A2Biee8Cg> instrument sale _____ YAHOO!
