I'd love to read that book. What's the title & author? How old are the 
references?

Probably not. But it seems like enough time has passed that surely someone 
has thought up a good one independently.

My message was basically a long-winded query as to whether my amitious dual 
Hammond spring reverb project was worthwhile...

I can get "parts" Hammond M-series organs for that. Well two that I know of 
right now. I'll bet cheaper organs might yield up interesting parts as well. 
I don't know if I could ever find a junked Wurlitzer, but that would be as 
cool as a Hammond. I still have my eye out for a complete, but 
non-functioning Wurlitzer Sideman to fix-up.
