1964
Hammond B3
with a 21H and a first Generation 122 leslie Speaker

Also installed is a Bill Brown (BB organ) active EQ, reverb, two Leslie switches,
a foot switch for the Leslie speeds on the expression pedal and a hot switch
to put the left hand bass punch to the pedals. A mod was included to maintain the
volume when the percussion volume (normal/soft) switch is activated to normal.
The foam has been removed, drawbar base cleaned, generator flushed, pedals are like
new and have been cleaned. All switches and contacts have been done.
The Leslie switches, reverb, EQ and hot switch are not shown in the pics
as this picture was taken before installing anything.
There are pictures down the side of the page also.
First a look at the finished organ... And yes! this is the original
finish. This B3 is one out of between 150 and 200 of it's kind ever made

This organ had only been moved 3 times in it's life and one of those times was
to bring it here. The organ never had a Leslie and the switch you see
hanging there is temporary until I decide on a switch.
Below is showing the original bill of sale. There is also the
certificate of ownershipand the owners playing guide and it's in great shape.
