Post At Jazz Club "FAROUT" , Yokohama, Japan with MIYA Toshi
As a professional Hammond organist, I have been playing my organ at Jazz Club and other facilities.
This is one of them.
Jazz club "FAROUT" is a celebrated club and it is known as its nice atomsphere with good music like cabarett.
I have been playing my Hammond at there every monthes.
This organ is a combinated digital Hammond of XK3-c,XLK,XPK with european-made wooden stand.
XK3-c has not only digital circuit but also vacuum tube circuit.
Added circuit of vacuum tube is very useful for warm sounds creation.

Hola! Arturo :P .
Muchas Gracias for your reply :D .
Oh! Hammond X-66 Convention in Japan :shock: !
Maybe it is impossible.
Because we have rare X-66 in Japan.

When X-66 was on market as brand new one, at that time, cost of X-66 was too much high for Japanese user.
So Hammond agency of Japan could not sell these kind of expensive organ.

One example, 1971 this year is my father gave me a new B-3 with PR-40 tone-cabinet and 122RV Leslie.
Price of this B-3 combination was 2,600,000 Japanese Yen.
At that time 360 Yen was 1US Dollar.
2,600,000 Yen means about 7,222.00 US Dollars.
And Japanese average monthly salary of Unversity graduated freshman of big company was 20,000 Yen on 1971.
So 2,600,000 Yen means 130 monthes salary of fresh bussiness men.

About price of X-66?
It was over 5,000,000 Yen means 13,888.00 US Dollars.
It was too much.
So we have not many X-66 in Japan.
Too hold Convention at Mexico is vest way to do it.

I appreciate your support to hold convention and maintain beautiful web-site.
Thank you very much, Arturo.
