The only difference is the furniture style only, the insides are the same. Please feel watch our YouTube video on this subject in further detail - The Difference between the Hammond B3 and C3 model organ

There are many reasons that there could be a difference. Some of these include the acoustical setting where you heard the organs, the Leslie speaker that was attached, but mostly the condition of the organ and how it has been maintained over the years. Now that these organs are an average age of 60 years old, most need a complete internal restoration

This is best determined by sending us some pictures of what you have and telling us what you require. Often it is much more practical to trade in your old equipment for equipment that is fully restored, better physical condition than the current condition of your organ, and can be easily financed. However, if there are sentimental reasons for keeping your current equipment, then restoration should be considered. Keyboard Exchange International will carefully outline the options available and let you decide which plan suits your needs best.

Yes we do, but only certain models that are still marketable like the models B3, C3, A-100 series and a few others. Logically we need to buy organs to be able to sell them and we also receive trade in instruments to increase our supply. If you wish to sell us a Hammond organ or Leslie speaker, or both, start by sending us some pictures and provide your location by city and state. This will save you a phone call to our office since the first thing we will tell you is to please send us some pictures so we can give your equipment proper consideration.

We are an authorized NEW Leslie dealer and can arrange to ship a NEW Leslie directly to your door brand new in the box. We will advise you on the correct model Leslie for your needs. Our used Leslie speakers cost almost as much as a new Leslie after our detailed restoration process and good used Leslies are hard to find therefore we rarely sell used Leslie speakers unless with an organ. Additional we do not advise that anyone purchase an organ without a Leslie due to the difficulty in finding a used Leslie and the difficulty in making it properly compatible with the organ. ALWAYS try to buy an organ with Leslie that you can hear before you purchase it and preferably be able to listen to many organs with Leslies in the same acoustical setting. How else will you know you are getting a great sounding instrument? ANY Hammond organ can sound great to your ear if you are only listening to one organ without being able to compare to others. To the inexperienced ear, all Hammond organs sound good. They can sound GREAT and that requires expert restoration.

The business began in 1968 under the name "Organ Transplant" but we shortly changed our name after a woman received a letter from us and thought someone was after her body parts!
