Hello all. I have just arranged to pick up a T-524c. I dont know much about this organ. The owner said that it was working over a year ago. He does not want to turn it on b/c it has not been oiled. Should I go ahead and buy this organ? Does anyone have information on this organ? When i move it i want to put in sideways in the back of my for ...

I could not find anything in the archives that went into this, perhaps someone can help. I have a 122 on my H-385. Recently, it started making a loud popping noise when switching from low to high speed, and vice versa. The noise varies in intensity, sometimes quite loud. The pop is not more frequent switching high to low, or the other way.This ...

I just bought an M-111.   Everything works okay, and I like it very much, just as much as my M-3.  There are a few things that I'd like to adjust:   1.

Midway through a song, I became aware of a loud noise...it was as if a switch was flipped on.There is now a constant static/hissing sound; like the white noise you hear between AM radio stations.It can be heard from both channels, all 3 speakers. Makes no difference vibrato or percussion or reverb on or off. The static volume changes with the ...

Somehow, the Model A that I found to fix up has the wrong pedal board! Somewhere there is an RT-2 that's missing its AGO 32 pedal board.  Too strange.    Does anyone have a regular pedal board to sell?  The sooner, the better-- my organ's in the shop and I'd love to get them the proper pedal board in order to get the ...
