Yes, he did something uniquely “patented”, that only he could do. I couldn’t quite hear it correctly, but tried my best. The emphasis for me was incorporating the Sep 24, 1969 Concerto night, version of “Wring That Neck”, with the classical solo inserts. I also wish I could have done a bit more during the guitar solo portion, other than chord comping, but I never bothered to learn the guitar solo on organ. Probably wouldn’t have sounded right anyway. Thank you for watching & for your comment.

@@B3burner 👍👍👍

Yes, my radio didn’t work. The person who sold it to me installed an amp and an mp3 player under the driver’s seat as well. Thanks for watching.

That’s a nice color combination. The 390 is quite the workhorse. Thanks for watching! 😎

@@forgivetwitch7640 Yes, I mistook everything west of the Hudson for Jersey. At some point the boundary line turns west and becomes a north-south boundary. I’ve lived in California too long! 😎 Thanks for watching.

Yes indeed it is. And very narrow too. From high up I thought it was a grass field, but as I got lower I saw the small sidewalk they called a runway! Glad I had an STOL. I barely stopped in time, even with it! Thanks for watching.

Actually, it was a chopped BV with the console of an old B-3 fitted into it. Done up in chrome & Tolex. I owned it from 2001 to 2017. The chorus/vibrato sounded excellent, as did the overall mechanical tone wheels. However… the AO28 tube preamp was replaced with an aftermarket Trek II solid state preamp, so it lost its distinctive overdrive and growl. Kind of a shame, but that’s how I was able to afford it in the first place.

Hi, thanks for taking time to watch my video. I think it’s close to real B-3 standards, the best I’ve seen in the clones I’ve had to compare to it. However, that being said, it’s not quite all the way there. Maybe slightly too stiff, and not quite the springiness- but darn close. To me the lower manual feels slightly stiffer than the upper. But my Xk-5 is used… Someone else had it before me… so how he broke it in is only a mystery to me. I hope that helps.

@B3burner Actually, your kind reply was more helpful than any other I have received lately. You described the key feel perfectly, and I have a much better understanding going forward, so, thank you, Good Sir!

@@kaivrock Yes, I need to do a chapter 2, where I discuss groups, favorites, combinations, and components. The voice organization system is quite intricate. Maybe in the near to medium future. Thanks for watching. 😎

@@keyzbrazy I Googled the weight of your keyboard- 36 pounds. It can certainly support that, but since my review, I’ve noticed the legs have gotten a little wobbly side-to-side. It’s not a drastic amount, but be careful. The weld joints are a little weak and I broke them on mine. Had them re-welded, it’s usable again, but it’s not as good as it originally was. If you decide to buy it, one leg must always lay flat first, so the other can lay flat second- when you’re folding it back up. If you bring a leg down and it doesn’t want to go down all the way, DON’T FORCE IT! Instead, choose the opposite leg that does lay flat, and put the other one second. Hope this helps… I really should do a second review discussing this issue. Thanks for watching.

@@B3burneryes thank you so much! I was definitely thinking about grabbing one. Would you suggest that I keep the legs at the initial height to preserve the legs?

Also if you wouldn’t mind doing a follow up video, it would be be greatly appreciated!! 😁

Wake up, wake up! I still have more to say! lol Yes, the recording itself is the easy part. Knowing what to cut and throw on the editing room floor, that’s the challenging part. I realize I could stand to be better at that. Regardless, thanks for watching anyway. Hope you got something out of it.

Yeah that tape is on the verge of tearing, it's been in hot attics over the years, and not so nice places. I'm glad I was able to get it to work well enough just to transfer it to digital. Thanks for listening, and sorry it took me a month to get back to you with a reply. I'm usually a little quicker than this.

Yes, I would have to agree with you. The woody, throaty soul of the 122 can't be beat.

Thank you. I appreciate that. 😎

Believe me, I know the feeling. I sometimes wish I had hung onto my black 1970 Ford LTD, but I think I moved up by purchasing the Cadillac.

@@wigwagstudios2474 That’s cool. I had to look up 9/12 to see what it is. Yes, it does sound a lot like one. Unfortunately, it didn’t bode well for the organ, but the drummer from my old band collects vintage keyboards, and was able to fix it, after I sold it to him.

I would agree wholeheartedly. It is a great one. I think I played a piano piece I uploaded here that starts on that chord.

7#9 would like to disagree with you LMAO

@@bencaroccio6559 Thank you for the kind words. And yes, you got that right, lots of fun! I wish I had kept it just a little bit longer. Thanks for watching! 😎

@@HAROLDSIMMONS-m6f Yes apparently so. Car registration laws have always been left up to the states. I actually like Ohio’s way of doing it better- but we have so many cars in California, we’d run out of letter/number combinations very quickly.

@@HAROLDSIMMONS-m6f Here in California, the plate stays with the car, not the former owner, unless it’s a personalized plate. The only times the plate doesn’t stay with the car, is when the car is sold to another state, the plate is stolen, or the car is a decommissioned former government or police vehicle, and the exempt plates are removed, and the new owner needs new non-exempt plates. In these last instances, the plate is destroyed, and the old owner wouldn’t get it either. The release of liability form releases the seller of all responsibilities regarding the car, its VIN, its license plates, and any negligent actions the buyer commits, after I’ve sold it to them. I hope that helps, and that I understand your question correctly.

Thank you, and yes I have already thanked Him.

Thank you, and thanks for watching as well. 😎

Thank you sir, I appreciate that. And thank you for watching.

@@shivanj1 Yes it is. I miss it. Shouldn’t have sold it. Thanks for watching.

I had a 66 Galaxie. Bigger than a modern day limo.

@@user-zy4cq6vo3q Those were very nice cars. I liked the stacked headlights.

Well thank you. I’m glad you discovered things you like here thanks for your support & for watching.

Ray, Thank you so much for the kind words. I will say I trust my ears more than the online chord charts. Many times, I find those to be wrong. To answer your question about clones, my XK-5 is my trusty big workhorse, but as you alluded to, it is pretty heavy with both manuals attached. My alternate go-to board is the Hammond SK-Pro. It's a single deck keyboard that pretty much does all I need it to, in an 18-pound package. I also use a Leslie 2100 series speaker. It's got one upper rotating horn, and a digitally simulated bass rotor. By simply simulating the bass, I don't need two rotating objects, and it therefore cuts down on the size and weight considerably. Only 50-pounds and 13" x 14" x10" high. I can fit it in the trunk of my Honda Accord. The only caveat is the sound is a little weak, and if I'm not careful, I'll overload the bass and blow the speaker. So it has to be miked to the PA for gig situations. But for practicing and recording at home alone, it is plenty loud without a mic. Thank you again for taking the time to watch my video(s).

@@B3burner Very helpful thanks..I play LH bass and comp on lower manual generaly..I take your point re: SK-Pro &, as it splits, I could change reg. for upper portion as and when..Your absolutely right! Whenever I went to a jazz gig out would come the Real Books. When you see something printed we tend to trust it, The Real books were OK as a guide, but wrong quite often. I think I might go XK5 route as I would carry the manuals seperately & it looks good at home which will be most of the time!! My only issue with any non- tonewheel, tends to be the C3 vibrato which I do use a lot. Thanks for promoting Hammond so well. Regards PS I have 2 Yamaha DXR10s..Ok,not valvey, but lightweight with good bass for their size.

@@PedroFonseca-x8v Awesome. Glad to hear it’s working out well for you. How do you connect it? Through the 1/4” hook up using the optional fast/slow pedal? Or do you use a 1/4” to 11-pin junction box? Be careful with volume, and watch that red overdrive light carefully. I think I partially blew my bass simulation speakers. They crackle every now and then. Just a fair warning to you. Otherwise, have fun! I like it because it’s a nice portable, 50 pound alternative to a full sized Leslie 3300.

@@Peculiarsafe83 Thank you, and I completely agree. Today large sedans & coupes aren’t even available. One better either be a pickup truck fan or an SUV fan, because there really is nothing else out there. Thanks for taking the time to watch. Much appreciated. 😎

Thank you very much for your kind word. It took me awhile to nail this one. I felt like I accomplished something- for sure! 😎 Thanks also for watching.

@@ssgsschiraq8858 Careful now… I have absolutely no idea what color they were. All I know is the car was stolen. But thank you for watching my video & subscribing. 😎

@@zro_dfects I agree wholeheartedly, and thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video.

@@Iceland874 Be really really careful with those legs! I should probably do a follow up video warning about them. I bent the hinges backwards by accident and broke the soldering from the frame. Had to have it soldered back on. And yes, the legs are not always perfectly straight. Mine now wobbles a bit. I’m sporting an 18 lb keyboard and I consider it fairly stable. However, the RD88 may be much too heavy. I’m not sure. Just be careful. I have since learned it is not perfect.

Thank you so much for the heartfelt compliment. My greatest fear was that I was giving too much information, and that the video was too long. Glad you got valuable information out of it. And yes, as far as I know, the M-series organs have a unique sound that you won't get through the consoles you mentioned. That's why 'Green Onions' never quite sounds right on a B-3. Thank you for watching.

Thank you for the kind words and sharing your wonderful memories. I have made some improvements since the 2021 video you watched. You should see my 2024. The car is in better shape now than it was then. Have a good weekend and thanks for stopping by.

Thank you for watching!

Ok that is probably true- I was just going by Wikipedia. 1966 seems a bit early, but you did say 1968, so that year is plausible. Thanks for watching.

Wow, ok. I’ll have to check it out. Thank you for the heads up.

Ok, I’ll take the bait for the sake of *CONSTRUCTIVE* criticism: How would you have done it differently? Thanks for watching.

SImple, it's a GUITAR SONG, not another scary AF organ song. Geniuses (like Hammond and Leslie) come up with the most frightening and stupid sound shit. Thank God I went against my father's wishes AND DID NOT GET AN ELECTRONICS DEGREE!!! The real world isn't some B-rated, stupid horror movie. See for yourself.

Thank you for your kind words and support. My only regret is that I couldn’t say the same things in fewer minutes, but I tend to take time to explain myself, when there’s many layers of something. Thank you for watching.

Thank you so much for all your kind words. I’m so glad there are other people out there, who appreciate my car as much as I do.

Thank you so much for letting us know the drummer’s name. I wondered who he was. I love his drum solo before the brass section kicks in.

Sir, those are valid concerns. Didn’t think about flat tires.

I see. Well that’s another way of looking at it. Thanks for watching.

Very good. 92’s are nice as well.
