Never seen This before it's Throwing that Sound Around Sounding Nostalgic That's Really classic from Old Gospel Sounding like I've Heard when I Was a Little Boy Back in the 70s I'm Turning 50 This Year Now I know How They get that Sound Thanks
Right from the first note I started thinking "Texas Blues" and whenever that subject comes up you can't miss talking about you-know-who (Stevie Ray Vaughan). Up until discovering the Leslie speaker system, I had just assumed that the Hammond organs were synonymous with this setup. I had no idea that they were/are used for guitars, and presumably other instruments as well. Very interesting effect that is probably not too widely known.
Same here with me. Thank God for out-of-the-box ideas. TBH, I hate them with organs. The original purpose, was to get the Hammond (and any electric) organ, to sound like a theater organ's tremulants (i.e. its singing voice). As an old organ hater, now I know (after all these years), about the way they sound. Guitars certainly sound better. I've heard vocals and synths thru Leslie cabinets as well. The actual speakers were provided by Jensen (early on, pre-60s).
Absolutely amazing. I love that sound,especially with a bit of overdrive “ala” Deep Purple. So you modified your amp to accommodate a leslie cabinet that isn’t even yours???
That's a Leslie 145 (the short cabinet version of the 147 that also includes the 147 amp). The upper and lower rotor don't need a back cover. However, the back cover of the middle compartment is essential to the woofer. The Leslie is basically a bass reflex cab with a compression driver feeding a horn.
I also thought it was a 145 . I own a 1950s c3 in white oak finish. It has the old caps , sounds dirty but I like the sound. Good to read a post by a knowledgeable tech.
@@randie9480 I own a 1957 C3 and just had my old oil waxpaper caps at the tonewheel generator replaced. These caps will cause the organ to get quite dull over time and have increased leakage (i.e., noises caused by unfiltered voltages present at the tonewheel pick-ups). In addition, my organ developed a constant whistle that got quite annoying, especially at high volume levels. Rebuilding the A0-28 tube preamp (including the replacement of the big filter caps next to the power transformer) didn't help. It was gone as soon as the generator caps were replaced. Now, the organ sounds very bright but that's fine with me since I'm a rock player. However, I really prefer the 50ies Scanner Chorus line box to the unit Hammond introduced in the 60ies. The difference in sound quality is tremendous which is why it had to be a 50ies Hammond for me. By the way: The very combination of a Kustom amp with a Leslie shown in this video is what Brother Jack McDuff used back in the day to get his magical Hammond sound.
great video u have posted :). i am looking at a big 910 model... 140 watts!!!! for guiatr ....... thanks for showing us the details of using one w/ guitar :)
run it through a flanger AND a Leslie and see what happens. There's a sound used on Eric Clapton's recording of The Core and that's what it sounds like they are using. Check it out. If you do know what they actually used on that song, let me know, but it just sounds like they were using both for certain sections.
Awesome...clarify a doubt my friend ... is there any switch that splits Chorus and Vibrato, as we usually see on pedals that emulate the leslie effect? thank you and Merry Xmas
I customized and built up that Strat myself. It was a Made in Mexico Black with white pick guard. I stripped it and stained it. IT has Fender Custom Shop '54 pick ups. A Calahan bridge. I picked the colors and stain myself.
I am 50 years old and I have never seen one of these in my entire life, that I know of. Thanks for sharing!

Great. Love this tone. Subscribed.

i really like this guitar timbre.
Leslie wavy sound sounds so nice

I don't own the Kustom head or the Leslie cab. Both were brought to me to repair.
@@keithb7 Ah....i missed that part. Thanks for the reply
Cool strat too. Ash bodies, black pickguard. Shit's cool

Vinnie B I don’t recall any switch as you mentioned. This Leslie was worked on last year. I gave it back to its owner.
@@keithb7 Thank you Keith...
I believe this is a 145 cabinet, the 147 cabinet is much bigger. Perhaps with a 147 amplifier in it?
Yes. The 145 is the shorter version of the 147 with the exact amplifier. Same as the 122 with the 142 being shorter.
Me lembrou o som dos Beatles.
Gotta ask if you can specifically ID that strat, love the body on that one the plain wood color is beautiful especially with those off white pickups

Its kina kewl if ya ask me.although most dont 😂.it would have its place in alot of tunes .
wow, that's great i have a B9 EX and a Korg AX3G, maybe i can reply the sound, maybe....
you have a great hifi,... the AX3G have the rotary effect!
Model 145 Leslie's used an amp marked 147.
🤟
Same kind of speaker used for black hole sun
Cool video! I was wondering, what's the funky progression you open with?
Thanks. No idea on the open riff. I was just screwing around. I must have jacked it from somewhere likely. I am unsure.
RELAY ! Of course, derrrr ? Nice demo tho. CHEERS.
Ya bud
Couldn’t stand the weather
145
Nice demo but please tune your high E string, please.
