I normally focus specifically on pianos but recently I embarked on a restoration of a Hammond M3 organ. I was down in Florida purchasing a piano from an old church, and while there I noticed tucked away in a hallway this Hammond M3 Console Organ. I couldn't help but ask if the people selling the piano were interested in selling the Hammond, the sellers accepted my offer and I now own this Hammond M3. I didn't even test the organ to see if it worked I just knew if it didn't I'd be able to fix it. I've always wanted a Hammond and this M3 was a popular console model of the 50's and 60's, the church we purchased it from supposedly used it for years. My goal was to restore it back to its original beauty and sound, so this blog is dedicated to the work done on this organ once we brought it to "the shop" for the repairs. My Dad helped with the wood refinishing part of the project, he is an amazing wood worker and craftsman, so as you see throughout credit is given to him with regards to the wood refinishing. I'll share below pictures and explain what each picture represents in the process of the restoration:<br />
<br />

Below Picture: This picture was taken when we brought the organ in the shop, as you can see the finish looks really rough, the organ was dirty and in a non-working condition. </div>

Below two pictures: I started with removing the upper and lower manuals on the M3 including removal of each key from the manual. This was to provide easy cleaning of the keys and the keybed of each manual. As well as prepare the organ for the wood refinishing.</div>

Below: Now with all of the keys removed, I carefully removed the Hammond tone generator, and both manuals through the back of the organ. I placed them on to barrels at the exact height they are in the organ to make sure any wires were carefully guarded I included a towel over the tone generator to protect it as well. This provided easy access to all of the wood for the refinishing. The above pictures shows a good example of the finish before it was stripped down.</div>

Below: Is the before picture of the Drawbars which control the sounds, the whole unit was taken apart and fully cleaned. I used a mild cleaner to remove the residue, and contact cleaner. I also used an pink eraser to clean the contacts gently. After they were cleaned they were placed in the silver pan below until the unit was reassembled.</div>

Below top picture: The organ didn't work when we brought it into the shop, so I started by looking for the obvious and the ceramic resistor (Below top picture) was most obvious because it was burned up. So I ordered another ceramic resistor just like based off of the schematic, and soldered it in the amp and got sound out of the organ. However, after a little bit of time the Multi-Section Capacitor (below bottom picture) would get really hot so I knew those had to be replaced. Also after it got hot the sound would fade away. There is one that is silver and one that was paper covered which is the Power Supply capacitor, I replaced it as well (you will see the black paper covered capacitor in next series of pictures)</div>

Below 5 pictures: As you can see in the first two pictures below both original capacitors have fulfilled their life "capacity" in doing what they were supposed to do, so I replaced both. I ordered replacements in a kit from a Hammond organ supplier online. The 5th picture on the bottom is the replacement kit I ordered, comes with: <em>120uF 50 Volt Electrolytic</em> (didn't use this); <em>Power Supply 50/50 @ 500V Capacitor </em>(which is the Black one replacing the original black paper capacitor); <em>Clamp For 50/50 @500 V Capacitor</em> (the original had its own mount the replacement comes with a clamp); finally <em>Amplifier Power Supply Multi-Section Capacitor</em> (Sliver capacitor, this feeds multiple currents throughout the Amp) I just followed the schematics and soldered wires to appropriate voltage readings. </div>

Well this is my final post on the Cable Baby Grand Restoration. I have not taken time to update this blog lately and the project was finished in May 2012. The Bass Strings are now in and the finish of the piano is also completed. The project turned out amazing and to my satisfaction, I have posted some pictures below of the finished piano.</div>

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">In the meantime I will be working on regulating the action and keys.

But when these strings are replaced you will not only see new shiny strings but new shiny silver pins which I will also be replacing.<br />

In a nutshell piano dampers stop the string from vibrating and they must be removed before removing the strings.<br />
<br />
The dampers in this piano look in fair condition, in most restorations the felts would be replaced completely. However, since there is still some life left in these, I'm going to reuse them at the end of this piano restoration and later down the road I may replace them. <br />
<br />
Since I'm going to reuse them after I restring the piano, I'm carefully removing these and placing them in groups each numbered so I know where they go when I place them back in the piano.<br />
<br />

I'm in the process of restoring it and will share the updates of my restoration of the piano through this blog. <br />
<br />
Below are pictures of the piano when it was first picked up from the location it was stored at. The pedals have been removed on these pictures but they will be placed back on the piano when the restoration job is completed.<br />
