Nash Keyworks

Feel pretty accomplished today. Did a massive job on this beautiful Hammond B3 at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church here in Portland. It had problems with the start and run switches, which is typical. But after replacing them, the synchronous run motor still wouldn't turn on. Turns out it needed replacing too. Tight spaces, lots of little wires, plenty of sharp places to bite me, and problems compounded on problems (broken oil wicks are a great source for inventing new swear words 😡) but FINALLY we got her on. Reattached a bunch of broken drawbar wires while I was back there and now she sings like a bird. Not bad for a 75 year old instrument!

Wowee look what came in the mail: I believe it is the first official credit on an album for the business of Nash Keyworks. Pretty cool! Honored to have lent my Hohner D6 Clavinet out to the folks in for their recording session. Record sounds great!
