Ken Vaughn just sent pictures of the player device atop his Wurlitzer
electronic organ and it appears to be virtually identical to the
"Magic Organ - Organmatic" player I just saved from the scrap heap.
[ See 031006 MMDigest, "Organ Roll Player by Automatic Music Corp." ]
I certainly think his valves must have been Perflex as were mine.
I will give him a bit of backstopping, having just gone through it
myself. Anyone who also has experience with these vile, villainous
Perflex individual unit valves, we would both like to hear from you.
Mine is now connected via telephone cable disconnects to our 11-rank
Wurlitzer pipe organ, and the results are well worth the tedium and
annoyance of the rebuild.
