Noice

And Kerry King is a terrible guitarist.
Worst than Kirk Hammett even

Nope.

'cause you can download an Opeth single.

You have to use a proper Mellotron to get the authentic Mellotron sound.  Which, as it happens, is used by Stephen Wilson and King Crimson.

Anekdoten use two.  So do Mort Macabre.

Also, there is a resale value, 'cause there's none currently on eBay (worldwide), so if Alex had one and put it on eBay, it'd go for crazy money.

I can only imagine dude, how much fun you would have smashing it.
It would give you over a week of entertainment

Exactly.

I would like one even without the re-sale value too. It'd be pretty cool to mess around with it.

Smashing it?!

I wouldn't want to ruin it.

Jannick Gers is at least good in the studio.
Kirk Hammett hasn't played well since the 80s
But he is a horrible player live

A resonator bass, I mean.

Woah, that does look cool.

Hmm... I'm not sure. Maybe I'll have to look into that sometime soon now.
