Custom built 'road' Leslie, designed to provide better transport and more volume, while retaining the tone of the 122-style model:
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A LOCAL SALE ONLY. If you want to ship it, and make arrangements for a trucking company to pick it up and put it on a pallet, I'll make it available streetside on a road with good truck access (MA State Road 119). I will NOT pack or ship it -- please don't ask.
HOWEVER, if you live within 100 miles of Ashby, MA I am willing to bring it to your location in my work van. The cost is $0.35/mile, measured round-trip. So, the cost would be $70 or less. This is to deliver it to your street location or driveway only. I will NOT help you bring it into your basement, or carry it up to your 2nd/3rd floor apartment! The Leslie itself must be paid for in advance through Reverb prior to delivery.
NOTE: This is a final sale item; please understand what you are buying before committing to the sale. That said, I will guarantee the structural soundness of the cabinet, and the full operation of the motors and speakers. This does not include the spare upper and lower motors which I will throw in: they run, but might need oiling and other TLC before using.
- Valhalla Woodworking 145-style birch plywood cabinet with oversize carrying handles, simplified styling (no trim pieces to break off).
- Covered in RhinoLiner on all sides, with oversized protective corners
- Removable (Velcro) top and bottom rear louvres.
- Unpowered cabinet, will accept any tube or solid-state power amp, handles 500W or more. (Unbelievably loud with a 200W tube head like a Sunn Coliseum or Macintosh power amp!)
- 700W 8 ohm Eminence woofer with 4" voice coil.
- 225W 8 ohm Selenium tweeter with 4" voice coil, phenolic diaphragm, 2" throat, 5.75lb magnet! (take a look at the size of it in the third picture) Same tonal properties as the vintage tweeter.
- 500+ watt crossover with image-parameter design, just like the original.
- Will take 400WRMS C1+C2+C5+C6 on a Hammond organ or clone, 24 hrs/day without damage -- VERY loud, but clean and clear!
- Original two-motor stacks top and bottom. I will throw in a pair of spare motors that run, but might need refurbishing.
- Stock ABS horn with diffusers (not the fragile Bakelite style).
- Stock lower rotor has been painted to minimize air resistance and noise.
- Solid-state controller provides Chorale-Stop-Tremolo speeds; accepts Voce V-3 8-pin cable, or two footswitches.
- Controller uses same mounting as the stock Leslie 122/147 amp, drop-in replacement. Also fits aftermarket high-power Leslie upgrades.
- Includes furniture-style cover and dolly (not permanently attached), not shown.
- Excellent shape: It has low use, and has never been dropped or otherwise abused. Even though the speakers can handle much more power, it was used with a 275W solid-state power amp and tube preamp (NOT part of the sale).
