# Talk:Hammond organ

How many instruments were sold to churches and how many to non-church musicians? If possible, even to the 3 specific years of the company.

@Steue: What's the reason for the unusual formatting of "electronic"? GA-RT-22 (talk) 02:45, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

To distinguish "electronic" from "electric"; as the article says.
Thanks, GA-RT-22, for asking and not reverting.

This questionn concernes Hammond organ #Tone generation / first line.

The section Hammond organ #Keyboards and pedalboard compares the Hammond first and mainly to a piano. Although this comparison is of interest, it more or less also applies to a pipe organ. The Hammond should first be compared to a pipe organ, and only then to a piano.

Hi all, the link to the article about John M. Hanert is wrong and leads to an article about an organ. 
Thanks!  TheNepomuk (talk) 19:58, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

The link is John M. Hanert. This is a redirect to that part of the Chord organ article that discusses him. He doesn't (yet) have his own article. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 20:03, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

To add to this article: a small section mentioning classical composers who have called for the Hammond organ in their compositions (they include Louis Andriessen and Karlheinz Stockhausen).
