Hammond organ

Electromechanical organ

The Hammond organ is an electromechanical keyboard instrument introduced by Laurens Hammond in 1935. It generates sound with spinning tonewheels and lets players blend harmonics using drawbars; paired with a rotating Leslie speaker, the Hammond (especially the B-3) became central to jazz, gospel, blues, and rock.
