I've lurked here for years and decided to finally join up. The information provided here out of knowledge and experience is absolutely invaluable!
10 years ago I owned a Rodgers 535, and currently have a Wurlitzer-branded 1993-vintage Viscount C-250 that was given to me and delivered free of charge when a local Methodist church decided to go the guitar and drums route. I actually love the sound (I know some here hate those organs) and for its time with a little reverb is really delightful to play a wide variety of literature rather convincingly. Not the best balance or construction, and a worthless swell pedal, but a great home practice instrument that has served me well!
Unfortunately...the computer boards decided to fry themselves and are currently with Norm in Wisconsin. Hopefully it can be saved, otherwise I will be heavily scouring the glut of unwanted organs on the market and figuring out what plan B is!
While a new Johannus Opus 270 would be a dream, I don't think I can convince my wife of that; additionally, there are so many used quality medium and large digital instruments out there at affordable price points that it may not be wise to buy new.
I guess I'll cross that bridge when I hear back from Norm.
Thanks again for all the information you've unwittingly provided me over the years!
