You have skills, so lucky to have awesome toys to play with.

[@erniepavone1093]

Very cool

[@thomassicard3733]

Love the held note with the R.H. little finger, while riffing some diatonic chords with the rest of the hand! You can play anything, man. Chopin, Beethoven, Debussy, Hindemith, you name it! But, yeah... your blues are suh-weeeeeet!!!!! I have been playing piano for 53 years, now. Subscribed!!

[@cristianalsina5270]

Beautiful playing, man! A Hammond and a Leslie... my golden dream!

[@organeu]

Fabulous, tone wheels Sound.

[@matthijsdaniel]

yeah right? XK5 is great too. But I like the XK3's bass sound a more

[@frantecar]

What masterpiece!

[@partyvogelharry]

Great playing, great Sound, great Hardware 😍😍😍👌🏻🎶 Must be a great satisfaction to have this sound on your fingers 😍🎶

[@PMUP2016]

Awesome

[@kovboj3000]

excellent playing technique.

[@erikschultz8239]

Very nice sound and groove! Skillfully played!

[@chrisdurhammusicchannel]

Sounds awesome!!!! I gotta get a Leslie!!!! I have a Hammond A-100 and a Hammond XK3-C and I barely ever play either. That Leslie sounds like the cure!!! Nice Blues, Matt!!!!!!!!!!!! Subbed, so you should hopefully have 145 subs to match your Leslie model!

[@christopherp.hitchens3902]

A “Leslie”? That’s what that things called. For years I’ve been calling it that THING THAT HAS HORNS THAT SPINS AROUND PRODUCING THAT WAH WAH WAH WAH sound!

[@matthijsdaniel]

haha lol, yes Leslie speaker it is. funfact: Mr hammond didn't like it at first that people connected his organ to these leslie speakers. Poor dude, had to deal with it XD

[@robfriedrich2822]

Ok, Hammond organist's wash machine is called Leslie.

[@timbascom2468]

Leslie Tone Cabinet to be exact. :)

[@eugenemichael2362]

Don Leslie was the inventor of the Leslie tone cabinet.

[@eddyoudenijhuis522]

Dat heb je super goed gespeeld kerel, toppie :) groeten uut twente

[@ju34edwards]

[@valeroski5413]

Muy bien compañero

[@deanloach2797]

Fabulous, Sounds great ! Well Done

[@matthijsdaniel]

tnx man :)

[@valeroski5413]

Hace muchos años tenía un un amplificador como ese. Suena muy bien con un teclado hammom

[@SEOTeamBerlin]

wow - looks like I need to practice more :-D - great sound, awesome playing :)

[@matthijsdaniel]

Corona free hours XD

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

I can definitely imagine owning this particular Hammond organ model if I had the money and the space. It would be sensational to have a two-tier Hammond organ again (the one I had from 2000-2011 was a Hammond E w/ Leslie 31H). I also like that you chose the B3 cabinet to hold it up instead of the C3 cabinet. I dig how you described the 145 as “the most expensive nightstand” you’ve ever bought. It could have that double function, couldn’t it?

[@johnsons1812]

Great playing Matt.

[@like2view]

Sounds Great.. Cool Blues... Great Bass walking skills there. Back in the day I played a Porta-B with a 145 with a foot switched pre-amp and that little Leslie kicked ass ...

[@leoddagan]

Groovy, man!

[@patrickwall8517]

That's an awesome set up. I don't care what anyone says tube amps have better sound than solid state.

[@Franz_Kreimer_Keys]

Great

[@RoelOverdrive]

Nice man, gr Roelof

[@BD-ds5kg]

Prachtig m'jonge👌

[@luivelvet]

Blondie Leo Messi playing beautifully a Hammond organ...Very talented..😎🎼

[@matthijsdaniel]

Haha thats funny my friend

[@jamesmorelandoliver8897]

Very enjoyable performance. The unique and classic Hammond/ Leslie tonewheel sound works in so many genres. You would love Brian Auger's Oblivion Express LP "SECOND WIND". It's just magical. Thank you for this gem!

[@hermanvonsprudelwasser]

Mooi man!

[@stevo34640]

Nice!

[@renebaltes]

Mooie sound ! ☺️

[@lexhoge]

Lekker gespeeld man!

[@JC-td4gg]

You can get the 1147 interface to allow for you to hook up the organ to the 145 using the 11 pin out.

[@pikuma]

I love that pygmy 145!!!

[@NannyNoya]

Heeeeerrrrrrrlijk! 👌👌👌

[@alainthiry3965]

goood!

[@nitrameel]

Love that sound! I used to play one ages ago when I was at school…I am now 66! I am sure the Leslie switch was mounted somewhere near the pedals. Or even on the swell pedal…or perhaps my imagination?

[@matthijsdaniel]

On the manual and the swellpedal too!

[@crazypainter56]

I also have a 145 -but it no work -got a mojo dual manual-sounds great

[@chrisg6086]

Lovely sounds with the settings you have - I shall try to copy them as I learn to get to grips with my newly-acquired XK3! Enjoyed the playing too - it looks as though you are a classically trained pianist

[@matthijsdaniel]

Nice! yes started out on the piano like many do

[@matthijsdaniel]

actually got an endorsement by Hammond Europe now. Playing the XK5 at the moment. Another hugh step foreward man. The XK5 is so close to the real C3, B3 thing. New videos coming soon

[@lyndateasdale9747]

1st class

[@matthijsdaniel]

🙏

[@scottdunn9087]

This slaps

[@Edwin572]

I would love to play that Hammond Organ and hear those hot sounds coming the the Leslie Speaker.

[@fertilbendjy4583]

I have two Leslie’s at my church, I’m trying to figure out how to wire it so I can control it on my mixer.

[@ALSM5]

Great Sound! I play a XK3c. Your tone wheel sounds great! would love to know your settings!

[@chrisg6086]

I've just bought an XK-3, and I'm learning too!

[@lynnhoffman90]

Do you have an adapter for the cable? How does the 11 pin cable connect to a vintage Leslie (6 pin I believe)?

[@toofast2k303]

What is covering the horn?

[@taubclark]

Are you using an interface or preamp to connect the Xk3c and 145? Which one

[@matthijsdaniel]

Direct, its modified

[@matthijsdaniel]

Hey! If you like check out my new band: Soulsmash. I am composing for hammond and synthbass now: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4OlXqiFqLuCq9U

[@louiscornale5667]

Wooly bully watch it

[@chenwenhua2269]

please try to play the hammond organ with the bass pedals, it is the traditional way to play organ

[@judsongallien]

not everyone has them. Ref Green Onions

[@emuhanna]

If only you'd been around to advise Jimmy Smith on the traditional way to play.

[@jbooks888]

25 down votes! How could anyone not like this enough to down vote? Honestly, there are some miserable people out there.

[@scott.a.schmidt]

Great sound! Does your organ have foot pedals?

[@matthijsdaniel]

Not in this video but now i do. Also im upgraded to the XK5

[@jennifersarantos9562]

Does it have pipe organ voices?

[@matthijsdaniel]

Yes great ones too. But for playing classical church music I would buy a different organ.

[@renebaltes]

Mathijs , de leslie is toch 6 pin en je Hammond 11? Hoe heb jij dit opgelost ? Groet René

[@matthijsdaniel]

klopt! heb ik laten opbouwen bij Musifix Holland

[@lerpack455]

Converters can be bought on the internet.

[@hansvannieuwehuijzen4667]

Hammond is the real thing.

[@robfriedrich2822]

​@@hansvannieuwehuijzen4667 Vintage Hammond. Today's Hammond organs are also clones and possibly a Viscount Legend could be closer to the original. So close, that you can notice the difference in AB comparison only when you use a vintage Hammond every day and listen very very carefully

[@mrdali67]

Nice performance. Would love to hear that on a "real" Hammond 😉 The XK3 just don't "tickle" in any way for me. Really would like to see a Shootout between the XK-3 and the new Viscount Soul on the same Leslie .. From what individual performances I have heard, Viscount hit the nail on the naming. The sound seems to have much more of that real "soul" of an old 50's Tonewheel. I have the feeling the Viscount would blow the XK3 totally away. Add a 145 or 122 Heritage to see how they perform against each other 🥰 Really that old 145 Didn't really remove the fact that the XK3 just sounds too sterile

[@matthijsdaniel]

I play on a XK5 at the moment thats faaaar more realistic. Never liked the viscount actually

[@Steven-zg5bq]

great playing! too digital for me

[@pauloneves4274]

Não tocou música nenhuma . Apenas fez barulho !!!!!!!

[@jean-paul7251]

Really old...1970.....are you a joker?

[@theloniousmonk81]
