Title: Organ Benches
Post by: B3Organist_007 on October 28, 2013, 01:29:35 PM

I am looking for an organ bench (Hammond B3). I found came across a bench, but its for a C3. Are C3/B3 benches made specifically for C3/B3 organs? Can they be interchanged?

As long as it's low enough to allow you to play bass pedals. As far as I know they are the same size and height. I play on both and I don't feel a difference.

As long as it's a similar Hammond model. A bench for a M1 (spinet-style Hammond) might not fit the larger pedalboard of a B3.
Best to measure/try before you buy...

You can buy benches and other wood parts here:  http://www.valhallawoodworking.com/benches.html (http://www.valhallawoodworking.com/benches.html)

I don't know how much they cost.

You can also find benches on craigslist if you look long enough.
