[HAM] Modified Leslie 145JohnC john at johncornicello.comTue Nov 11 11:20:14 CST 2003
Thanks, Gary. I'm assuming the same thing. I picked it up today. No apparent speed control. It looks to me like the lower rotor is on fast and the upper on slow. I've put some photos of the amp up at http://www.johncornicello.com/leslie/147amp.html.
