Congrats. It's a great organ. I had one but after purchasing a T-500 and
later an E-100, something had to go.

If you want to get it rocking, then buld an effects loop into the signal
line. This can be done between percussion amp and output amp, or somewhere
near the volume pedal. Then insert a Vox Big Ben overdrive, which is a very
transparent and inexpensive valve driven stomp box. This will give you
instant valve overdrive on your organ.
