The first thing I heard was the crackle of bad connections and the whirr of the unlubricated Leslie speaker. It was a mid-70's 'granny organ' with two keyboards, bass pedals, a rhythm section and a Leslie rotary speaker.

When he dropped it off and we man-handled the beast into the house I gave it a quick once-over. The fact that my wife likes him in spite of the fact that he brings me a constant supply of broken junk is evidence of just how awesome he is. Gordy is one of the coolest people I know. When Gordy, my friend/gear scout/hoarding enabler, called and asked me if I wanted an old Hammond organ I jumped on it.

See The Recyclone Rotary Amp and The Blacklord Synth for projects using these parts.) (Note- This is an intro and a description of the disassembly of the organ.
