reverb can w/synths

[Theo]

A nice source for rev. cans may be old home organs.
They sell for almost nothing these days.
Seen some bedween $7 and $12 here in holland,
considering our greedy nature prices may be more relaxed in the rest of the
world.
As a bonus most include 2 x 3 1/2 oct. of these black and white things ;-)

BTW Please don't use a tone-wheel hammond for this,
even when dead these are worth gold (well maybe not literally) for donor
parts.

Cheers Theo
