Departure

It always seems that just as soon as we get these things rolling, it's time to go.

Unlike times in the past, not all the 'trons were finished up.  Dan's EMI machine was completely dismantled, and John was staying 'til mid-week to have a look at it and a few other machines.

LEFT UNDONE

I suspect this man was quite busy overseeing the reconstruction of the above bits o' 'Tron!

PACKING UP

You know it's over when the first 'tron gets sealed in its Protect-O-Muff or is loaded into a road case for the trip home.


Clay Eccles, Ray Jung, and Martin Smith chat for a second as Clay loads the Mark VI into its road case.

Ray Jung---not packing up, but he packs a wallop on the bass!
His fretless bass is now part of the Mellotron tape collection, available from the Streetly Lads (UK) and Jimmy Moore (US).

Ken Merbler helps pack up

 

Dan Miso got his M400 packed away in its Protect-O-Muff, ready to go.

 

And with that, 'Tronto Mark II drew to a close.

'til next time!
