1970's MCI M340 Guitorgan Sunburst With Pedal, Cable, and OHSC Free Shipping
This MCI M340 Guitorgan is something you don't see everyday. This instrument is intended to sound like a cross between a Hammond organ and an electric guitar and offers six different segments, one for each string, that can create unique polyphonic organ sounds. It works pretty well though there is some tracking issues with the organ tones causing wrong and dissonant notes at times that clashes with the guitar. There are also a few dead notes that don't function. All of the organ controls on the lower horn seem to work, but the button and switch on the pickguard don't seem to do anything. The bridge pickup is also not functioning. This guitorgan could use some work to be fully functional, but plays nice as-is and has enough working features to get the Guitorgan experience.
