Reviews, advice and tutorials
In this Hammond organ blog, I’ve gathered together as much news and practical advice as possible here to help you choose, buy, maintain, restore, gig and record these incredible instruments. In my view, Hammond organs deserve a place in every band and it’s up to us owners to keep that sound alive. In the posts and video below, I try to answer common questions and share a few playing tips that I’ve picked up over the years. I also review new products and try to give a gigging organ player perspective on how they would fit into my rig.
I hope you find this Hammond organ blog helpful. If there’s anything you’d like me to take a look at, just get in touch.
