Nick Foley, Hammond Organ Player
My name is Nick Foley and I’ve been a Hammond organ player for three quarters of my life. I’m based in the British Midlands and am fascinated/obsessed by all things Hammond. Because of this, I’ve owned many of the best organ clones over the last three decades including as Yamaha SKs and Hammond XBs. I’ve since arrived at my dream setup of a Hammond XK-Pro rig for touring and a 1960 Hammond C3 organ for recording. I am a UK endorsee for Lounsberry pedals USA and use their amazing Organ Grinder pedal through either a Leslie 122 or 145.
Over the years I’ve picked up a few tips on buying, restoring, gigging and recording these incredible instruments. This website gives me the opportunity to share a few of these tips. I’m hoping to help keep the Hammond organ sound alive for the next generation of players.
