[@markothwriter]

Probably the tubes. Pain in the __s.

[@jonnda]

​@@markothwriter In brief, yes. But also the original lack of fuses anywhere, the power supply, and ancient capacitors. If you're curious, there's a couple websites that have documented people's effort to restore their Novachord. Again, that's 163 tubes, about a thousand degrading capacitors that probably are weird values, fire hazard transformers, AND ZERO FUSES.

[@jimmycricket5366]

​@@jonndaFuses aren't essential to the function when it's in good condition, so they probably figured the extra cost would just sink the viability of the whole instrument.😂

[@jonnda]

@@jimmycricket5366 Yeah, no one was thinking about the instrument being useable almost a century after it was made. One disadvantage of tubes, and using a lot of them, is heat. Heat degrades a lot of stuff this baby is made of. They were aware of that enough to tell people not to run it with certain cover panels on, and you'll notice that on this one they probably took the whole top case off to help keep the temperature down. So anyways, the thing was a fire hazard after awhile. They were wild days before people realized fuses can not only help prevent and reduce electric shock, but help prevent the whole device from catastrophic failure. It wasn't just Hammond. Old amps often didn't have fuses either. Heck, the Power Grids didn't have fuses at one point until S&C Electric invented them IIRC.

“Containing 163 vacuum tubes and over 1,000 custom capacitors,[7] the Novachord weighed nearly 500 pounds and was roughly the size of two spinet pianos. The divide-down oscillator architecture, based on vacuum-tube monostable circuits, permitted all 72 notes to be played polyphonically by deriving several octaves of notes from twelve L-C tuned top-octave oscillators. Only one tetrode per lower note was needed.”

I worked on one around 2002-ish for Mark Mothersbaugh. Lots and lots of very specific capacitor values and resistors to make up the oscillators and frequency dividers. I think it’s about 96 tubes also. The rattling sound is from brass bars that oscillate to make the tremolo. You have to kick start them with a lever with felt on it.

One of these appeared in the lobby of our restored theater and organ. For sale! Then it appeared in our warehouse and I got more than a look at it. Mice ate the paper cones of the speakers. Under the hood I smelled old electronics like never before or again. Carefully I fired it up and got sound. The amp chassis is the same as the old Hammond tall boy tone cabinets. No electrolytics to worry about, oil filled. Only one note worked in all octaves but most were dead. The tubes are obsolete. I had to crate it up for a trip to Italy.
