Hi Gandert
?
Nothing wrong with a nice spinet, maybe they are not as versatile as a Console...but have a listen to Whiter Shade Of Pale by Procul Harem....tell us if you think that Hammond sounds ok??and if you dont already know, tell us what you think it was recorded on.

Best Wishes,

First, let me introduce myself.

I joined this group just recently, hoping I may be able to help some
people out with a few of their problems. I am not a player, I am a full
time repairer based in London, not confined to Hammond. I work on most
makes, and have been in the business for around thirty years.

Tone generators in the spinets are smaller than the B & C models. Less
notes generated, more borrowing or break-back (notes being repeated in the
next higher octave). They also simply leave some keys silent on the
upper pitches. This gives a sound that lacks the greater tone of the
larger organs.

David

Welcome David,
Always good to have an technician watching the board.
I`m a DVD technician myself, don`t know what the inside
of a Hammond looks like, but I` willing to learn.

Hey everyone,, i have a question. i play an organ at a bar downtown.. i dont
know what model it is... The cabinet looks like an a100, everything looks
like an a 100 exccept for the keys don't end on the right side... there is a
6 inch gap or so between the last C and the end of the organ.... and on the
right hand side of the bottom manual, there are 8 large black switches, that
you can push in or out, i have never seen one like this and i'm wonderin if
anyone knows what it could be

thanks
Dave

The RT, RT2, RT3 and D100 had 8 large tilting stops and a volume control on the lower right hand side. This was for the pedal solo voice (non tonewheel generated) It meant the cabinet was considerably longer than the other models..could it be one of these?

Hello Darren,
?
Unfortunately I can't listen to that song, but off course i know that The HAMMOND SOUND requires a B3 or a simular organ. But I'm from Holland and B3's are very hard to get here. At this moment I'm satisfied with my l122. You see I'm a student. But one day i'll own a B3 with a leslie 122, for sure. I'm saving money all ready.
By the way?I'd really like to hear that song. You don't happen to have a mp3 or something?
