Thank you so much for this. As a self-taught player, this explaination is most valuable to me.

I am doing my little part in keeping these wonderful instruments in operation; you are helping those with these organs make the most of them.

Keep up the great work!

Best regards, Bob

[HaywardMusic]

@bobmann107 You are very welcome, Bob. Thank you for watching, and for your kind comments. Good luck with your playing, and from Kathy & myself in Sweden, we wish you - "Happy Music!!" - Best Regards, Peter :)

Another great video. And seeing that you get views and comments proves that the organ is still alive :)

I hope it gets more alive again in the next decade.

[HaywardMusic]

@SilverHammond Thanks for listening, and for your comments. The organ MAY make a 'come-back' - but as a true organ sound... drawbars, etc. as new groups opt for the 60's sound.

In my opinion, the days of the all-singing, all-dancing 'orchestral' organ have been numbered ever since we started advertising them as being so SIMPLE to play with only one-finger.... and that was forty years ago.

Best wishes, Peter.

@HaywardMusic "In my opinion, the days of the all-singing, all-dancing 'orchestral' organ have been numbered ever since we started advertising them as being so SIMPLE to play with only one-finger...."

Yeah, why buy an organ costing 15.000 euro, when a keyboard costing € 2.000 can also be played with one finger... I'm going to hang on to my Hammond XH-200 for some time, and put a full XK-3C (or successor) next to it in times to come.

Thank you for your video's.

Thanks for posting! This is going to be a big help for playing my Wersi in Hammond-style!

[HaywardMusic]

@Thedaanvo You are really welcome. Thanks for watching, and enjoy playing 'Hammond' on your Wersi. All best wishes - Peter.

Too bad Hammond Organ Company discontinued this organ model. It was very competitive in price for a delux digital spinet organ, just under $13,000 in America back then. I love the style and modern contemporary design! It sounds great too!
