The Mellotron Group

Thank you Vance. It's all about evacuation now isn't it!

p.s.  So, I met a Hammond guru, who lives about 15 minutes from me. He's serviced all the NY/ NJ royalty and we know a lot of the same folks.  My M3 is going on a road trip soon along with a case of Blue Moon.  I'm very psyched to learn from a seasoned pro on the ins and outs of owning a Hammond.  The 145 is ready to be reassembled as well.  Enough about me....

 3) In 100 % ORIGINAL condition. No a                          "Streetly serviced" or refurbished unit or any                          crap like that.
                          
                          You're an obvious ASS! I guess you have no                          sense of these or any other vintage                          instrument, mechanical apparatus.  You'll                          never ever find an original tron in top shape                          that hasn't been serviced.  I doubt there are                          more than a handful of people in the world who                          could tell the difference between an expertly                          refurbed model and an original in top shape                          and you have just insulted that handful, who                          happen to be on this list.
                          
                          Money can't buy love, but I suggest you spend                          a little of yours on some manners.  Maybe you                          might want to look up the definition of                          research in a dictionary as it is obvious your                          research has been minimal at best.
                            
                            This shit pisses me off.

Hi y'all:
                                    I am looking for an original                                    Mellotron from the 60's and I am                                    willing to pay top dollar for the                                    right one. It will be a gift for a                                    very special someone.
                                    I have been doing some research. May                                    be someone on this group may help me                                    find it or is willing to sell. These                                    are my conditions.
                                    1) It has to be in top shape.
                                    2) Not a barn garbage or not working                                    unit or partially working keyboard.
                                    3) In 100 % ORIGINAL condition. No a                                    "Streetly serviced" or refurbished                                    unit or any crap like that.
                                    4) If possible, I would like to have                                    also original sets of recordings                                    with the keyboard.
                                    5) I don't mind the model as the                                    previous 4 conditions are there.
                                    Please send me some pictures or                                    video to my email and the price you                                    are looking for. I will be in touch                                    with you within a week.
                                    Thank you. Have a great day.
