If you dare suggest that a Hammond B3 with a Leslie speaker is not a =
real organ, perhaps we need to step outside onto the organtech list and =
duke it out!

The Hammond B3 - the only other instrument with keys.   ;-)

  It could be an old Hammond with the "tone wheels" and they were =
supposed to be oiled once a year.  If that be the case, you'll need =
Hammond organ oil (might be in the console or bench) and you fill each =
of the little containers once.  If it's a real organ leave it to the =
real organ person.

  I have a new customer, a church, whose pastor says they also have an =
organ that needs lubrication.  I don't know anything about them (haven't =
been there yet), and don't want to mess with something I don't know, but =
they make it sound like a fairly routine operation.  Is it something =
like lubing the blower motor?  Is this something I should attempt, or =
(my preference) leave to the experts?  How would I find an organ =
maintenance person?  I'm assuming it's not electronic... =20

  Thanks,
