IMHO it failed miserably. -----Original Message----- From: dougsyolists@... [mailto:dougsyolists@...] Sent: 19 February 2002 22:59 To: hammond_zone@... Subject: Re: [hammond_zone] hooking up a-100 to 47leslie While I was at Gulia's yesterday (Canton OH), in addition to the Leslie 251 they had, I also saw a Leslie 415. This is a solid-state, 11-pin, two-channel unit, slightly smaller than a 145 (27W x 18D x 30H vs 145 29W x 20D x 33H) in a wood finish case that was in pretty good condition. It has the main+reverb inputs just like a 251. They were asking $700 for it. I didn't try it out, but I thought about it for my church's A-100, I could've actually stuffed it into my back seat, something I couldn't do with a 145 (that 2" of width makes a lot of difference). Incidentally, the 251 they had apparently started life as a 147RV (it had the 147RV sticker on the back). The amp had been swapped and the reverb unit removed, leaving just the stationary speaker for the reverb channel. It was "over $1,000" but I didn't ask specifics. They were willing to sell it solo. They also had a B-3/142 pair there, plays well, case looks awful, for $3500, and numerous CV's, A-100's, an A, etc. They also had an XB-3A, a very nice Allen and - of all things - a Kawai that had drawbars/percussion. I'd never seen that before. Doug Visit The Hammond Zone To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: hammond_zone-unsubscribe@... Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to Yahoo!
