  • Kawai Organ

    I found this Kawai Organ for sale online. Which I shared in the Internet Classifieds group. Does anyone know what model it is or anything about it? I'm intrigued and have to admit it's a pretty cool looking vintage instrument... Drawbars and dials!

    Thanks- John

    Looks like E650w i believe is the model number, quite rare organ I would think, dates from late 70s. Quite good organ back then but like all older organs values now low due to low demand on older organs.

      Wow! Late 70's... So it's definitely analog. It's a very interesting looking instrument. They are asking $99 for it at a Habit for Humanity resale here in Ohio. I'm not looking for another organ but honestly I'd like to hear what it sounds like... Hope someone saves it! Might be a cool one to have in a personal collection.

        I found a video on YouTube. It appears to be the spinet version of this model. It's a Kawai with drawbars and dials! Although the video isn't labeled with those designations. Doesn't sound too bad!https://youtu.be/w7kENHH3R18

          Yes, an E650W - would be 1979 to 1980. The organ in the clip is the spinet E550. Would sound even better if the player knew how to register it properly! :)

          Good sounding organ, and the white ones are rare. All analogue, almost nothing in there that can't be fixed, but should be as reliable as they get. $99 should get it a home, I would hope.
          It's not what you play. It's not how you play. It's the fact that you're playing that counts.

          Thanks Andy! I was hoping you'd see the post. Maybe, I can talk someone into saving it... It would be a shame to let that go to the dumpster.
