[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] M-3: worth restoring?
Hey Hammond-heads! I'm new to this board, although I've been lurking here for a couple of days. I recently received an M-3 and Leslie 120 as a sort of hand-me down from a relative. It seems to be in good condition, with the following exceptions: 1) the drawbar contacts and key contacts are dirty 2) the vibrato is motor-boating 3) the pedals do not produce notes, just low-frequency noise (simple problem or not?) 4) the cabinetry needs a little refinishing Now, what I need to know is this: Keeping in mind that I am presently a novice at Hammond technology, is this organ worth the cost and effort of restoring it? If so, what would it be worth in full operating condition? In operating condition with refinished cabinetry? I know it's not one of the hippest Hammonds to be discussed here, but it's all I've got right now.... Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! ____________________________ MIKE LEMIEUX Professional Musician Boise, Idaho USA <lemieux@cyberhighway.net> ____________________________
