Joey DeFrancesco/Jimmy McGriff sound wannabe

Garage improvisation on my Korg CX-3 and Leslie 760. Trying to get that Joey DeFrancesco sound with small dose of MrGriff's overdrive style. Don't look at video, just try to listen it (sorry on bad video). :))

Any advice how to make my sound better is welcome!

Did you ever get a 147 or 122?  I am just curious if the tone of the 760 is much different than a 147 or 122? ??????????????

@dzlvs8 Yes, I had a 147. Check my other videos. Yes, the sound is different. If you like clean sound go for 760, it would be ok. But if you like overdrive sound then you should go for tube Leslie (122, 147 etc.).

That Leslie 760 sounds really good.... have you rebuilt the motor?

[dstuhne]

Well, it sounds OK. But I will buy again 147 (or 122) ASAP. No, I didn't rebuild the motors. I have replaced their belts and O-rings, cleaned and oiled them and they work OK now. I have rebuild Leslie's crossover network and amps (replaced capacitors, diodes etc.). Maybe it would be smart thing to rebuild the motors.. At least I have to replace springs. What do you suggest?

Good improvisations! Did you change the Korg organ for the Porta B?

[dstuhne]

No, I didn't change it for the P100. I bought P100 before I sold CX-3. Thanks for the comment! ;)

Thnx Marco. Yes, the CX-3 is doing his job. But it won't be part of my equipment for too long. ;)

and the CX3 is still doing his job....
