Hey!
I have a Royalist Chord organ in the studio that
get used on many a track. We call it "Wheezy,"
appropriately enough. It's actually like a Magnus on
steriods; finished birch cabinet, screw-on legs and
two volume settings, as well as a knee lever for
swells. Let me tell ya, the thing gets loud! I think
it was a $15 dollar ebay purchase around 8 years ago.
I definitely didn't confuse it with a 'tron! A fun
little unit.
