I wrote: Steven built many (most?) of the Keppinger theremins, and this was his personal theremin. ---------------- Mark Keppinger kindly filled me in on the details of the his vacuum tube theremin: Mark wrote: There were only eight of these fine instruments built. I still have the first one. The second went to the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. When word got out, Steven Hasten contacted me, and wanted to be a part of what I was doing. I had parts for six more, and told him that if he built them for me, he could have one for himself. Naturally, he 'cherry picked' the one that he liked the most, and gave the utmost attention to it's adjustments. That's the one you have. So where the others? Well, like I said, I have one. Jon Spencer has one. A collector in Holland has one. A recording studio in Honolulu has one. The president of a company that does special effects engineering for a large Anaheim corporation (also Florida, France, Japan, etc) has one. You have one. I'm not sure about the others..." ------------- bret
