Leslie 147, with Atlas driver and JBL lower speaker, stock amp,
original Leslie preamp pedal to accept 1/4" inputs, Leslie Cable, all working well, cabinet solid - though has definitely been gigged and is scuffed. Sounded very nice with a little keyboard running through it, but have not yet set it up at home to try with any of my gear.
Price for everything = $350.00

Was not necessarily in the market, but jumped when the opportunity arose.

Question: How is a RMI different from a boat anchor?

Answer: It's OK to pull the boat anchor OUT of the water. laugh

Oh my, what an amazing deal.

I landed almost that exact same package. For that exact price. In 1989.

Congrats!

Regards,
Eric

Ooooo! Lucky you! I never see Leslies in my neighborhood, and when I do they are overpriced.

Killer deal. I just sold my 147 (stock) with preamp pedal (Leslie) for $1,000.

FINALLY got to fire it up at home today. Sounds great, low mechanical noise, no problems other than a little dust.
Definitely brighter and brasher (not in a bad way - just different) than my (now gone) 122 and my Speakeasy AMA Roadbox III. Will probably retube it at some point, but more than usable as is.
Very,very,happy with the deal. Yes I can post pix - but how do you post a picture here?

The pre-amp pedal for 1/4" inputs is worth $350 alone.....

Indeed.
Will probably sell it and put the proceeds towards a Speakeasy pedal.

Slightly OT - a guitarist mate of mine is off to Australia for 12 months, and asked me to look after his

Marshall stack while he's away (JCM2000 100w head + 4x12 cab).

Being a BIG fan of Jon Lord's Hammond sound, I just couldn't resist trying my Electro through it.....

F***ING AWESOME thu ! ! !

Anyone else play their clonewheel thro' a similar set-up?


PS: Congrats Beethree smile - I'm not at all jealous... I mean it - I'm not jealous , I'm NOT.
