Al the Piano Guy Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Hello again. As my screen name implies, I am at heart a piano player. But it took buying 2 old Hammond consoles to make me realize this. Glad for the lesson, but as I said in my earlier post on the Old Piano thread, I will be down-sizing in the future and need to get rid of stuff. These are taking up a lot of space. One is a project RT-2 with no sound cabinet. The other is the infamous H series. The RT-2 is in several pieces and the H is living room quality but is a technical orphan. Although a true (and some might argue superior) tone-wheel, the H just isnt a mainstream tone-wheel. It would help knowing if there was any demand for consoles like these in their condition. Is there any better way than CL for selling/donating/etc. these? Any suggestions from the tone-wheel members of the group? Thanks of your feedback Al, the Piano Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammondDave Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 The H is definitely donation material. Find a local senior home, donate it, and take a tax deduction. The RT2, if in good condition, could fetch about $500-$1000.

WesG Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 If the RT2 has later keys, you are basically a Trek II unit away from a C3 with better pedals! The H...well, the H stands for Heavy. Also, there are about 150 electrolytic caps in one of those néeding replacement. I would offer $400 on a local RT2 sight unseen provided all the parts were there. $500 with a bench and pedals. More if it worked.
