1958 Hohner Organetta Demonstration

[@piggycity]

Ha ha love your humor…the high heels bit was great

[@handmadeindustrial]

I believe this is your most gag laden episode yet!

[@MirlitronOne]

Ah, how well I remember the great 1970s hits of Jon Bon Tempi and his Band.

[@NeonEleven]

One of the best videos on KZbin. Fooken hilarious. Enjoyed every minute.

Not seen one of that model, but in that era Hohner made several models of full=size electric reed organs. We had one in a church I used to play at - a chord organ = in effect a piano accordion laid out horizontally with an electric blower. About 3 octaves of treble keys with 4 sets of reeds, and 72 bass buttons. Not a bad sound = and a reasonable variety. It would be fun to get hold of one now. I also have 2 Melodicas. Keep up the good work.

This is now my favorite youtube channel.

[@sonijam]

Informative and entertaining as always. I'm glad you played that Wicker Man song.

[@aftertheendtimes]

Just Love your energy and humor dear Steve =D 🧡

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Why thank you! :)

[@nedmarc]

Are you sure you’re not Rick Wakeman’s secret love-child? Your humour and keyboard lectures are super.

[@eshninerforest]

Your videos are good!

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Thanks!

[@Inivican]

Daniel Johnston recorded Walking the Cow and some other songs on something similar to this.

Rip dj

[@nigelrogers8690]

Very informative and saves me buying another cr@ppy organ thinking its gonna sound like a rhodes 🤣. U can knock out a tune on that, I just sound like the icecream van 👏🏾👏🏾 Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾

[@mzisman]

This video just made the organetta an absolute cult vintage keyboard. I really want one now. Just unsure, which one to get, the organetta or the sunrise...

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Either would be nice I think

[@Keyboardhugo]

😉🤣🤣 You are sitting at this little Keyboard like Linus from the Comics "Charly Brown"

[@rot_studios]

Perfect for an Alestorm cover band tbh

[@coldcaption]

Some interesting nb energy at 1:07

[@MrMe4444444]

Apparently spit valves were made to piss off guitar and bass players by covering their cords in spittle.

[@timothyverbist5795]

Nice, but when can we see your Hammond Solovox J (1940) in action?

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Soon - currently awaiting a service and some parts it needs cost £££

[@johnsonmonsen]

What a bunch of funny little organs! Thank you for presenting these even you had to deal with kneeling in order to making this review! Regarding Bontempi: maybe some day you will get your hands to one of the legendary Bontempi 32 4331 saxophones. According to rumours there isn't any chance to get more sax for less the buck; 15 Euro definitely is a competitive price ... All the best :-)! An additional market analysis: Instruments including electric blowers could come to a huge revival when combined with vaporizers. Special suited for the US market something called e.g. the "Stoner Onset 29" possibly would become the first melodica which rewards playing flawlessly with colours which are not restricted to the keyboard layout. Synesthesia light. Further there is no need for the perfect pitch in order to aim for the perfect hit ;-)!

[@howardmaryon]

Fan request: please play the “Captain Pugwash” theme on either the Melodica or any of your favourite hairdryer powered instruments?

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Yes it will happen soon!

[@simonsimon325]

The jumbo jet/hurricane sound effect made me laugh way more than it should have done. You're living proof that musicianship and comedy probably use the same bit of the brain.

[@howardmaryon]

Presumably, all the keys on the “Sunset” organ were a uniform faded grey colour?

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Hahaha

[@mattw115]

Did I hear Pippin Fort from Camberwick Green there?!…

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Yep! I almost shouted ‘company… March!’ and banged my little drum

[@kamisevak]

I got the same one and still have no idea how to play on it, neither what to play on it. Any recommendations and does anyone know good tutorial videos? Specifically for an Organetta

[@trystero1729]

Sounds very similar to my Farfisa MicrOrgan

[@JAY61ish]

Lovely shoes!! ..... And ..who doesn't like a nice looking box!! I have to say in all honesty though... That's a horrid little noisy fan. 🤣 Great stuff as always sir..

[@joywhitehouse8486]

Hi do you know anyone who buys these organs? I have one in its original box no plug on it been in storage at mums house but now back with me following her death last year. I don't play any instruments despite being bought several different instruments over the years.

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Try selling on eBay - put the word vintage in the listing and someone will buy it I am sure

[@joywhitehouse8486]

@@VintageKeysStudio thank you

[@walterkersting9922]

This is probably the fairest trial that this instrument ever had

[@edsknife]

Your jokes give me a Bohner.

[@verkehrsteilnehmer-berlin]

Vacuum accordion

[@goldenfurniture123]

haha funny organ

I try to subscribe every time you ask me, but a little window keeps asking me to unsubscribe. I'm just not sure who to listen to. You seem really smart, but my computer seems... ummm... possibly as smart.

[@VintageKeysStudio]

Haha yes it like a kind of subscribing paradox
