Hi Gang,   Kindred or long-lost siblings/cousins,whatever.
Sequential order of Mellotrons doesn't happen too often these days.....

MK2/123  --  Dave Kean
MK1/124  --  Jerry Korb
MK2/125  --  Brian Kehew

Interesting aside: I just finished stripping down my recently 
acquired #380 in preparation for cabinet refinishing, and discovered 
that some of the components appear to be labeled 379.  The two audio 
jack mounting plates, for example, have "379F" and "379B" written on 
the backs.

Is it possible that some M400 never saw the light of day and were 
scrapped before getting out the door - Or were serial numbers 
assigned only after the units were ready to ship?
