Late 70's MKV Mellotron

Post by Philip »

Spent some time down in Edinburgh to see some of the fringe festival. Whilst there I also got to play a rare MKV Mellotron. Only 30 were made. :badlove: :badlove: :badlove:

An ace condition, well running machine of audio tape goodness.

Sounds great, and those knobs are super cool. And looks like the expression pedals use the same shell as the Colorsound wah?

Wow, super clean :shocked:

That second clip is just pure auditory goosebumpiness.

Sounds like 1967 :love:
