Hi JR,
I am not failure with the 700 series but would strongly suggest that the
repair of the amp would be the best way to go. What you want to do is
possible it would not provide satisfactory results.
While Leslies did wonders for Hammonds rest assured it will not do justice
to the pedal on any organ that is voiced to have imitative pipe stops.
Kindest regards
Frank Evans

Subject: [analogorgans] Rodgers 700B series
Hi there. I'm in the camp of many on here. A friend just acquired a
Rodgers 700B series (I think model 751) from our church, and was wondering
about how to amplify the thing in her basement.
The sound guy from our church was able to jerry-rig something with some
domestic stereo speakers, but there seems to be a missing channel or
something and she is looking for other options. When doing some voltmeter
testing, it seems that one of the four internal amps is dead (it is
labeled Pedal).
Is there any way to bypass the internal amps and rely upon something like
a vintage Hammond leslie. (I have a Leslie model 148 in the garage). Or
am I being overly optimistic (and even silly) thinking that would be
possible?
Thanks for any insight...
JR
