One of the best demo for mellotron out there! Thats a beautiful mk 2 sitting there. What's in the foreground? A black M400?

@KeysBR Thank you very much for the nice comments! I play Mellotron since 1979 and the MKV is my favorite machine. I like to call it Darth Vader.

I heard the mark 5 was a rare beast.

@Drunkcitymusic Yes the MK V is rare. Only 30 units were produce by the factory.
