It's been a couple of years since they visited us, but they may have contacts in the Lakes Region, or as is often the case, a tech who has a vacation home in the area. Our B3 was my father's; he played regularly until 1991. We brought it here in 1992 when we closed the Massachusetts house and he moved to a retirement community. We have the Hammond sound box, no Leslie speakers as my father was not a rock n roller. Maybe your wife would like a B3?
Thanks for your reply, Descant. At our stage of life (we are now both in our 70s), we really don't want to purchase an original (i.e. "old technology") B3 model, as good as they sound. My wife used to own an M3, which was similar but not nearly as good as a B3, but we sold it years ago due to ongoing difficulty of getting repair parts, amplifier tubes, etc.


Thanks for the lead about Nesbitt's Organ Service in Methuen. I'll get in touch with them and see if they service modern Hammond electronic organs or can point us to someone in the Lakes Region who does.
