Vintage organs

condra

Aquired this recently. It was kinda funny bringing it home on top of the car with my dad.

Its a "wizard 320 gem" electric organ. made in italy, Ive no idea when. 80s maybe?

How much would this be worth?

Anyone know?



Ive been told between 150 and 200.

The diode/fuse/power supply in the back may need to be replaced, as it is causing a hum/ground loop/ noise or something in the sound.

Still a nice bit of retro furniture. I guess if you knew how to, or (like in my case) werent too lazy to sort out the power supply, it could be sold for a bit more.

If anyones interested, Ill probably thro it in adverts.ie this evening.

It wouldnt fit in a car unless its got a hell of a boot, or a trailer.

I played one of these in a house in Swords about 20 years ago when I was the ripe old age of 8, I remember the coloured switches on the left hand side very well. The hum would be easily repairable, but as to what it's worth? Hard to say really. Home Digital Pianos (Not synth keyboards)are so cheap now, and they can replicate many sounds, and come with MIDI onboard, so unless you find a collector, it's hard to say what the value would be.

Try musicthing - it's a blog, ask the guys there. They're organ and synth mad. And bonus points for your subject title, I thought you were talking about one of our Mod's for a minute ... made me choke with laughter!

Zilch I reckon. I've seen quite a few of these being given away free on jumbletown.
