We Can Rebuild Your Hammond
Almost all Vintage Hammond Organs are at the age where they need service to be put back in proper operation and optimum playing condition. For instance, almost every original Hammond made in 50's and 60's needs new AC power cord replacements. The generator, and line box filters generally leak and need replacing, to get the organ back to proper output levels. Vibrato scanners, often need rebuilding, amps, need rebuilding, bus bars can be lubed or replaced. We often have to fix leslie cables and connections, and switches as well as replace tubes. These are just a few examples of the rebuilding procedures, and checks that we do.
All though this may seem like a lot of work, when you compare the cost of a new organ, your overall cost may be less. These rebuilt Hammonds still have plenty of life in them if properly refurbished or rebuilt. How many electronic organs do you know that are still worth playing and listening to that are 50-60 years old? The unique sound of a vintage Hammond never grows old! With proper oiling and care there is no reason why your rebuilt Hammond cannot last another 30 - 40 years.
