[HAM] **SPAM(5.6)** R-124 - for and against.

[Jerry Fowler]

R-100 series organs do have tonewheel generators (a plus), but the
amps are transistor (a minus, depending on who you ask), and they
don't have scanner vibrato (a minus). R-100s do have full size manuals
with all 9 drawbars on both upper and lower, so depending on your
playing style it may be more desirable than any of the spinets.

Provided the cabinet is in good shape and everything works, its
probably not a bad buy. Take the time to press every key, slide all
the drawbars while holding down keys, etc. Any flaws you can find in
this way can help you bargain for a better price.
