Maybe its because  B3’s are more common than trons, but I don’t think I 
would sell my M400 for  anything…


I used to feel that way, but after having so many pass through my hands in  
the last few years, I don't so much anymore. I've had mixed feelings about  
letting two Trons go, however. 1562 was MY Mellotron. I loved it and it was  
played live in many, many shows, and it was recorded many times. #600 (Lazarus)  
was also very hard to part with. What made it better for me was that both went  
to great homes. A guy on this list bought #600 before it was even close to  
being finished. He lives nearby, and knowing that a talented musician who  gave 
a shit was buying it made it all the more worthwhile to make it as good as  I 
could. I would have liked to have kept that one too but then I would have 
been  less motivated to move on. I know where several more are... just waiting 
for  me.
 
I'm waiting for my M-4000.
