My Dad's Hammond Concord Organ

[SoundofJoy]

My Dad is an authorized Hammond organ servicer for the past 40 years. he ran across a Hammond Concord (home organ) that was in bad shape. It didn't work, had shorted out circuit boards and broken legs. He made legs, repaired the shorted out board and plans to refinish the organ and put into his house. Here's what is looks like and sounds like without a leslie speaker.

That is really cool! I wished that there was one of those anywhere close where I am! I want a house organ and that would absolutely do it!(plus I record at home, too) That is cool, I'm glad to have seen that!

pretty awesome playing SAm;when I grow up I wanna be like you and Diversei!!!! what were you doing with your left hand-mostly tritones?

[SoundofJoy]

I play a combination of both tri-tones and harmony against what my right hand is doing.

Wow! Sounds like he put a lot of love into the repairs!
One thing, though - seems to be a lot of clicks (not the organ's percussion) on the video recording - maybe it's distortion on the sound track?
Perhaps adjusting the camera's sound level would help?

It was a cheap camera
