Re: [newmellotrongroup] Price of Mellotron in 1972

The reality is not that they improve, necessarily, but that by playing them 
 regularly, they remain in good working order. The motor needs to run, the  
bearings need to revolve and the electronics need to warm up. Cleaning a  
Mellotron or Chamberlin regularly is also critical to their reliability and  
playability.
