INTRODUCING THE A-162 | Hammond USA - http://hammondorganco.com/introducing-the-a-162/ ON THEIR 80th ANNIVERSARY, HAMMOND ORGAN RE-IMAGINES THE CLASSIC “A-100” Popular model retains the legendary sound at a budget price While the HAMMOND B-3 remains the world standard for Electronic Organs, its “little brother”, the model A-100, has its devotees as well. HAMMOND USA announces the release of the A-162, inspired by the original, which was released in 1960. The classic A-100 was a self-contained instrument needing no external speakers, providing the inimitable Hammond tone in a compact “footprint”, having all the features of the Hammond flagship, at a more modest price. The New Model A-162 continues that tradition. Using the same VASE III Tonal “Engine” as their top-of-the-line B-3mkII, the new A-162 gives all the power and sound expected from a Hammond, with the familiar reverse-key presets, Touch-Response Percussion, Chorus-Vibrato, and twin waterfall keyboards with 25-note pedalboard. The new A-162 features a powerful 150-watt onboard sound system with a compliment of five heavy duty speakers, one of which is a 15” woofer for rich pedal/bass tones. This system even surpasses the beloved antique A-100 with the inclusion of a state-of-the-art Digital Leslie™, a benefit not found on the original. The option remains, however, to attach a physical Leslie speaker to expand the tonal range, if necessary. The demand for the

Joe Berger introduced us in Frankfurt Musikmesse 1987 - here we are in 1988 in Franfurt - R.I.P. John! - Jon Hammond Band http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_EntwistleJohn Alec Entwistle (9 October 1944 – 27 June 2002) was a British musician, songwriter, singer, film and music producer, who was best known as the bass guitarist for British rock band The Who. He was the only member of the band to have formal musical training. His aggressive lead sound influenced many rock bass players.[1][2] He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of The Who in 1990. John Entwistle's instrumental approach used pentatonic lead lines, and a then-unusual trebly sound ("full treble, full volume") created by roundwound RotoSound steel bass strings. He was nicknamed "The Ox", as well as "Thunderfingers" – because his digits became a blur across the four-string fretboard.[3] In 2011, a Rolling Stone reader poll selected him as the greatest bassist of all time.[4] The Biography Channel has declared that John Entwistle is considered by many to be the best bass guitarist that ever lived, and that it is often said that he did for the bass what Jimi Hendrix did for the guitar. irth name John Alec Entwistle Also known as The Ox, Thunderfingers, The Quiet One, Big Johnny Twinkle Born 9 October 1944 Chiswick, London, England Died 27 June 2002 (aged 57) Paradise, Nevada, United States Genres Rock, art rock, hard rock, power pop Occupations Musician, songwriter, record producer, musical arranger Instruments Bass guitar, vocals, French horn, keyboards, piano, trumpet, double bass, harmonica, jaw harp, bugle, percussion, eight-string bass guitar Years active 1961–2002 Labels Polydor, MCA, ATCO Records, Track Records, Griffin Music Associated acts The Who, The John Entwistle Band, Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band, Gov't Mule, Led Zeppelin, The Fabulous Poodles, Susanna Hoffs, Tipton, Entwistle & Powell, Téléphone Entwistle was born on 9 October 1944 in Chiswick, a suburb of London.[6] He was an only child. His father, Herbert, played trumpet[7] and his mother, Queenie Maud (29 November 1922 – 4 March 2011)[citation needed], played piano.[8] His parents' marriage failed soon after he was born, and he was mostly raised by his grandparents in South Acton.[9] Divorce was uncommon in the
