Hammond organ
(redirected from Hammond B3)

Hammond organ

Electric organ invented in the USA by Laurens Hammond in 1934. It is widely used in gospel music. Hammond applied valve technology to miniaturize Thaddeus Cahill's original ‘tone-wheel’ concept, introduced draw-slide registration to vary timbre, and added a distinctive tremulant using rotating speakers. The synthesizer was developed from the Hammond organ.
