Gulbransen "Fishing Pole" Tracking Mechanism
By John Ledwon

Anyone know if this is a similar system as was used on the Aeolian
Hammond BA player organs?  I have one of these beasts and the tracking
mechanism is less than satisfactory!  I chews up the left side of the
roll on reroll.

I was told the Aeolian Hammond tracking system was the fishing pole
system but haven't been able to get any information on how to adjust
it.  Does it really work?  Seems like a very odd system compared to
some of the other player tracking systems.

Regards,

John Ledwon
