Was told it worked 3 years back, inherited it from a friend. The cabinet has a few significant scuffs.

If you want it, dm me. I’m in West Town, just off 90/94.

I will be moving a L-112 organ next week and I’ve read that the tone generator does not need to be locked down on models like this. I’ve heard horror stories of people who neglected to lock down their B3. However the L series is a different animal entirely I’m sure. Would appreciate the confirmation! I need the peace of mind. Thanks!

Any of y’all have some recommendations around Savannah, GA? Recently inherited a A100 and it needs a bit of attention.

Thanks in advance.

We have a C3 with a leslie at our church in Morgantown, WV that hasn't been used in years. I'm the sound guy and I've been tasked with trying to sell it. I know it did work however I've been unable to get any sounds from it. It powers on, Leslie spinning, draw bars out. I'd kind of like to get it working or at least have a good idea what's wrong with it because it's pestering me however the primary goal is to sell it. Any guidance, suggestions or input?

Edit: Things I've tried Hold start until running smoothly, flip run while continuing to hold start for several seconds before releasing start. The organ is running and the leslie is spinning.

I have moved and the volume up and down on both organ and leslie. They are set about 1/3 right now.

Preset B, B-flat and several other random ones on both upper and lower.

Hello. I am a keyboard player in a jam band. We are primarily oriented towards Grateful Dead. I am curious to see people's thoughts on the role of the hammond organ in the context of this sort of music.

Any deadheads in here?

I've been playing keys for a good bit of time now in various settings; first as a child in classical piano training, then recreationally experimenting with non-sheet-music playing on my own, and finally gravitating towards playing in bands. I suppose what I'm asking for here is:

Any and all thoughts, opinions, advice/tips, etc. about playing a hammond in a dead band. How it fits into the sound, how it should move and rise/fall within the flow, rhythm/melody/lead ratio, really just anything about it. I don't know any organ players and I don't find a whole lot of learning resources out there for this particular thing. Rhythm guitarists trying to learn Bobby parts? 50,000 YouTube videos out there. Hell, there might be a thousand people on the internet explaining how to imitate Jerry in 1973 specifically. But grateful dead hammond material? Nuthin.

Thoughts?

Recently bought a Hammond T-500 and I've seen many people talking about modifications for it and I looked into it but couldn't find much. The one thing I did find and thinking about trying is removing the click filter to bring back that nice click. Does anyone know if by doing this, it would risk being damaged or be unusable?

Just picked up a used L-100 organ. The power comes on when I flick the switch, and the generator is spinning, but it makes no sound when I press the keys. How can I troubleshoot this?

I am looking into picking up the organ and I love the sound of hammond organs with the guitar. I am looking for an organ that is portable for gigs. Is such a thing possible?

I have checked marketplace for this organ and found which looks promising but idk how I'd transport it and also I'm not sure if it's even worth getting as it needs tunning

I know this sounds silly but it’s a cheaper option if you look in the right places but I want a good overview on how one would rate it

Hey folks, im helping a buddy with a project chopping his A-100. We’re pretty much done, last thing we need to do is add a 1/4” jack to the back to hook up an expression pedal for volume control. Anyone in here have experience with this? Any tips?

hey everybody, i'm looking at taking some online lessons for rock organ and have been curious to anyone's opinion on universeofkeys.com i follow him on youtube and instagram and all of his clips are great and he explains everything very well. any insight would help!

Hey all! Did a review on my Yamaha YC-61 if anyone wants to check it out. https://youtu.be/V26TIztNKcY. Pretty good organ features, and only 15 lbs!

I was fortunate to get a front-row seat for his visit to Sacramento’s Sofia Theatre.

How much would you pay for an L100? I appreciate your responses.

How much would you pay for a Hammond m101 in great condition? I just don’t want to lowball anyone or overpay. It’s difficult to find the value of these things.

Hi,

Yesterday I got a Hammond T112 delivered which is a transistor amp model with built-in fixed speakers. Totally loving it! And now i'm looking for ways to use it with external speakers (like a Leslie emulator) and/or hook it up to some pedals and i'm trying to come up with a strategy for this.

The "headphone output" doesn't seem to be working and as far as can tell, I don't see wires running to it. So connecting that to a DI or something is not an option but I could just hook it up to the speaker as the schematics suggest.

What I also did find is a 7 pin output that can connect to a "Series 10" tone cab. Somehow I don't see it in the schematic I have of the T100. But I probably overlook it? Two questions on this output:

1. I did find the pin layout description. But what is not clear to me is what kind of audio signal is actually being passed through. Is this a line-level output? Amplified (ie: what drives the speakers) to an x-amount of watts? or perhaps a lower-level output (like instrument level) which is basically taken from before the main amplifying stage? Somehow I can't really find "conversion" cables, only a 7 to 5 pin adapter.

2. Given that I have a cable and connect it, does it mean that the internal speakers automatically get disabled? And if that is the case, can these internal speakers then just be removed from the organ without attaching a resistive load to the cables (if I get it right, this is a must for the tube-based amps but not for the transistor ones?)

I am also aware of the "line out kits" existing (and the schematics to build your own one). But I'd like to explore this avenue as even if that 7-pin output is useless, I at least get a better understanding of it. Anyone here who knows what's up with these 7-pin outputs?

Can someone help me figure out the hammond settings (drawbars, perc, etc..) for this song? https://youtu.be/XXVd3nNIaB0?si=FUaY767Tk2JOKLlp

The solo starts at 1:20.

Found an M3 in my area that has been modified. Have you ever seen this “The Trio” panel? is it a common mod? it seems like it could be leslie controls and some sort of bass line or preset?

Are there any other obscurish bands in this style . Organ duo/ trio , more modern . Have tried Benevento / Russo , Kiyo*Sen , Bootcut, MMW, Space Junk ….

Can anyone recommend the more jazz fusion leanings in the Barbara discography or is it mainly straight jazz ?

I have been trying to get in touch with Hammond through their website form to inquire about repair of a non functioning Leslie “cream” pedal. After multiple attempts as well as direct emails to their main contact email, I’ve had no response at all.

Has anyone had any luck dealing with Hammond on servicing issues? Has been really frustrating.

When I play my Hammond bc, the volume seems to be variable in the lower half of the volume positions. I might not move my foot, but the volume will change or spike. This even happens when playing without touching the volume pedal... if I play louder, then this isn't an issue. Does anyone have an idea of what this might be?

My Leslie has been making some unpleasant sounds, and I believe I’ve tracked it down to this part that holds the belt in place, which makes a good amount of squeaky noise when spun freely. When I spin the horn assembly (now detached from this), it’s quiet, so I dont think its the bearings of the actual motor.

What is this part called? I’d like to get a replacement. Alternatively, does anyone know any methods of restoring this part (lubrication, etc.)?
