Hi Hanon,

How is it going with the Hammond ? So the repair is finished, everything is in order, you're the lucky man who can play on a real Hammond B3 when he wants !! ?

Hi Frantz,
I stopped short of re-capping the amps.
I basically restored all function and cleaned the instrument.

One of the first things that one realizes with this instrument is that it would benefit greatly from a Leslie (or Vent. or Lex) ;)
I'm not likely to invest in any of that. I had fun turning it from a brick back into an instrument again.
I'm now looking to pass it on to some worthy musician.

Said worthiness to be determined by the first person willing to make a trip to sarasota with $200 in hand.
A worthy successor has been chosen :clap: :clap: :thumbup:

Cheers, Hanon

Hello Johannes,
now if I could just find a modular moog in the trash.
I believe that is actually one of the signs of the apocalypse :shock:

Indeed!
I think I enjoyed fixing it up almost as much as playing it.
It was a lot of fun turning a brick back into an instrument :D
I hope its new owner will enjoy it, preserve it, and pass it along to a future generation.

Cheers, Hanon
