Hi Fritz,
This guy on my Hammond forum can probably help with the foldback mod: http://captain-foldback.com
He also archives schematics on everything. If you want to come to California I have a working M3 I will
give you for free! I’m tired of hearing my girlfriend bitch about it being in the front room J. I have an
XK-3c so my back breaking days of B3, C3, and M3s are over! J
Cheers,
Gary

Congratulations Fritz- I love those M3's- you could drop them off a
battleship, retreive them months later , dry them off and they would still
play (something I heard Hammond actually did). Maybe in the future you can
get the foldback mod on the upper register and it will be in essence a B3
with shorter keyboards. > Going to southern VA next weekend to pick up my newly purchased Hammond
