I received a Gulbransen organ from a family friend. Some of the keys (entire octives throughout) are not working anymore and I don't have the knowledge or resources to fix it. It has a 1980's Leslie speaker in it that I just removed today.
Ill share my brief LOL story:
Easily removed the entire unit with 6 screws. I then clipped what looked like the power wires in hopes of powering it otherwise. I then ran upstairs and cut an old piece of extension chord and tried attaching those copper wires to the silver Leslie power wires hoping it would start spinning. I don't know what I'm doing but I would like to install an input jack and power supply to this unit and make it look nicer/easier to play. Ill be using my strat through it for recording, but might plug old keyboards into it and what not...just a small lesie solid state "Amp" you could say. I know it still needs the amp and was going to use a crappy 5w marshal one I have laying around.
Any advice whatsoever will be fun to attempt
Here are some pics:




I didn't take a picture of the other wires, but im fairly certiain they're just regular (copper?) speaker cables.
Thanks for reading!
