Sometimes Leslie is More


Murph Wanca
Maintaining the Leslie cabinet.
We recently had a visit from Murph Wanca from Nashville Pro Hammond. He was here to add a half-moon switch to our Hammond organ. He also installed a new relay inside the leslie cabinet itself to help reduce the clicking noise when flipping the tremolo back and forth.

Murph has been our go-to guy for both our Hammond B2 and also our Wurly. He recently repaired the sustain pedal on the Wurlitzer that lives at the studio as well.

Maintaining our gear at the studio is a never-ending cycle. If you stop to consider just how many components are involved in making one full-band tracking session successful, it can add up quick.
