There's this wonderful exchange: Quote Jerry: "The XXX has this control on it called Multi Tone Boost and we don't. Can we add it?" Doug: "What does it do?" Jerry: "I don't know, is it important?" Doug: "Well if it's a feature that's popular in the competition, yes, it's important." Jerry: "We just need to have the control, it doesn't have to do the same thing." Doug: "Well, what do you want it to do?" Jerry: "I don't care as long as it does something." Doug: "How much can I spend on it?" Jerry: "You mean there's more than just the switch?" Doug: "Probably." Jerry: "OK, in addition to the switch - fifty cents." Cheers, Mike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamPro Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 That Rheem Mark VII was my very first keyboard. I bought it, a red tuck-'n-roll Fender amp and a 15" speaker cabinet all for $300 from a pawn shop in Cambridge, MA., around 1976. I remember not liking it because it didn't sound like the organ on all those cool Allman Bros. records (which was of course a Hammond and Leslie). I sold it when I bought a 73-key Rhodes Suitcase. Occasionally, I peruse Reverb with fantasies of buying another one for the sake of nostalgia. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of which - that guy's other hand is bigger than his head! In all seriousness..... My dad worked for General Electric when I was a kid, and everything in the house was from GE. I am sure if GE made musical instruments we would have had them. Come to think of it, a GE organ is somewhat more believable than a Rheem organ, so who knows? Maybe they did.
