[HAM] New member -- chops vs original -- Women players

[Linda Dachtyl]

Thanks.

You should check out Alicia!

I looked here today and I was still on the list on CD downloads and a  
couple of tunes if you want to take listen.

LDB3 and Friends/Blue Bop

I haul a B3 or A100 with a 760 to gigs.
If the organ stays at the place for awhile I will use a 22H with a  
choral add on from a motor I pulled out of a blown 125 I used to use  
with an M3.

Plugged a Wurlitzer EP into it once and blew the speaker. The 125 was  
nothing to write home about. It had "artwork" carved in from  
termites. I picked this one up from a recording studio that was  
closing for around $40 and used to use a Peavey Mace to power it with  
a 40db attenuator to kill the hum in the line.

Thanks,

Linda
