| Vintage Hammond The Piper Autochord, Mi pickup only
Sign in to disble this ad
Works, need a little TLC, mainly cleaning, but works and tubes seem to be all good. Anyway, the Piper was issued in 1970 and was apparently the first organ to employ the ‘autochord’ system. Built in tape deck so you can play along and record.
It’s operation is weird. When the levers are in the ‘up’ position, they are off. Flip them down and they activate. The same is true for the Bass, Reverb, Rate (tempo for the on board drum box), Repeat (tempo for banjo, and vibrato) and Volume (main, drum box, solo percussion) sliders – down is louder, down is faster. It’s the opposite of almost EVERY other electronic device ever produced!
The levers are split into five sections – Bass, Accompaniment, Vibrato, Percussion and Solo.
The sounds are:
PERCUSSION: Piano, Harpsichord, Guitar, Sitar, Mallet Vibraphone, and Banjo.
SOLO: Trombone, Accordion, Flute, Violin, Trumpet, and ‘Dynamute’.
Pick up only, located in Flint area. $50 and it's yours.
