Leslie 145 - Expressions of Interest
Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2010 5:55 pmHi all... i don't want to be a tease, but i'm genuinely torn whether to sell this or not.
It is a fully original, fully working Leslie 145 (with original Type 147 amp). It dates (with confidence) from 1973. cosmetically it has a couple of scratches and some paint splashes on the top. I bought it from a church, who were renovating at the time and hadn't covered it up properly! but otherwise it's sweet as. i'll take some pics as soon as i get some interest.
other than being driven at church on sundays, it has only been used occasionally in the home studio, so it's had an easy life. it will include the hard to find 6-pin cable.
i'm not going to list a price just yet. because if you're interested, you know what its worth... and i'd rather negotiate a fair deal for both of us. if you're in melbourne, you are welcome to come and check it out.
i've always planned to keep this for my dream studio full of vintage instruments. maybe i will, maybe i won't. at the moment i have more pressing musical commitments however, so something has to go. i am also considering selling my Kon Zissis-modified Hammond T202 (solid state but proper tonewheel, improved for a more B3-like sound).
Talk to me if you're interested in either.
cheers, wez
