Hi !



Hi !

  my name is Mike Sues and I'm a Hammond enthusiast ... currently I'm playing
  a Korg BX-3 through a Leslie 145 though next year when I have more room I'm
  going to buy an A-100, but keep the BX-3 for gigging, etc. (I love the
  Hammond sounds but hate the weight !) My love of the Hammond came from
  listening to hours and hours of Rick Wakeman and Keith Emerson with small
  forays into the world of blues. In fact, even though I also have a couple of
  synths (X3 and Wavestation EX), whenever I jam with the guys I always go for
  the organ sound.

  I came across an article from a British mag (Music Technology I think) which
  described all of the different models of Hammonds, features, dates of
  production, etc. which I can paraphrase and post to the group as a FAQ-type
  thing if people are interested.

  I know this is an introduction but I have one question ... I just recently
  bought my Leslie 145 (after using a Leslie 16, Brianizer, Leslie 415
  (transistor) but not all at once !) and have heard of people installing 
  cross-overs in their Leslies ... did not the stock Leslie's (122, 147, 145)
  have cross-overs built in to divide the sound between the two speakers ?

  Maybe someone could post something FAQ-like for Leslies !

  Thanks for setting up the list Mark !

  TTYL
