Up tonight is a classic Hammond B3 Organ in very nice complete working condition. Listing for a friend of the family. One interesting bit of trivia that Rod told me but didn't mention in his description was that this particular model was an absolute favorite among Gospel Churches back in the day!  Known for it's rich, smooth sound and fabulous tone the world over, this vintage instrument continues to set itself apart from today's digital technology. In fact, many modern musicians prefer the older analog (old school tube- type amplifiers) style equipment for it's superb quality. (As compared to sound that comes out of a chip nowadays ;) So here's all the details; Hammond B-3 organ. Classic model, estimate age to be late 1950's. Current owner purchased about 15 years ago from original owner (a college friend's aunt) who bought locally at Penny Owsley Music store in Pasadena, CA. Organ has never been used professionally or outside of either owners' homes. Everything in original condition, includes full bass foot pedals, bench (opens for storage) and music holder, along with a Leslie model 22-H revolving speaker. Organ is maple wood finish and in very good / excellent appearance and running condition. The original owner had the Leslie Speaker painted off-white to match woodwork of an alcove in the living room where the organ was placed. The first owner also had Maas Rowe Carrillions installed in the organ console which current owner has not used. I don't know if the carillions work ( since I have never tried them )  Feel free to call me to answer any questions at all.
