My 197x Hammond L-100-P

After playing my Hammond L-122 for a couple of years, I realized that since I enjoyed this sound so much, I wanted to bring it to the audience when my band played out.

I didnt have the heart to chop it, since I liked the furniture.

I looked on the internet and discovered that there was already a chopped fabric model from Hammond. Its called the Hammond L-100-P in Europe, and its built in belgium. . In US its called the Porta B.

I found an ad for an old L-100P with some trouble. actually he said that If I came, i could get it for free!

so I drove From Ålesund to Oslo, and picked it up. I also got a Galanti X-150, whom later should be the furniture for my B3-p. See link

The L-100P wasnot in okay shape. somebody had removed the amp, and soldered off the pedals. even removed them!

With help from my friend Kåre Basso, we soldered the L-100P together again, and it worked nicely ever since.

This is the specifications for the P-100:
