DENNIS CAPIGA: Hello. My name is Dennis Capiga. I'm the senior president of Hammond Suzuki, and I'm here to introduce the new Leslie 3300 today. This is probably one of the most powerful Leslies Hammond-Leslie has ever created. It's 300-watt RMS, and what's really fantastic about this instrument is both solid state and has a tube preamp to give you the warm sound that people really enjoy in tube amplifiers today plus it's portable.

People love their Leslies for pro line purposes for years but it was very difficult to transport. Now we have a special cabinet with casters. It has a finish, pickup truck liner, which is indestructible. It can handle all the bruises on the road.

It's flexible. In the past, all our Leslie products only interfaced with Hammond organs through an 11-pin Leslie cable, but we changed that now. Now, we added 1/4" input jacks to our Leslies. What does that mean? That means people who have Roland keyboards or Korgs can now enjoy the sound of a Leslie product through that particular jack, plus we gave you all the versatility of adjusting the sound just the way you like it. [INDISCERNIBLE] things like the breaking time, ramp time, speed up, slow down, anyway you want it we can do it. And if you want to get back to the factory standard, we have a calibration standard built into this Leslie for you. So, convenience, price, workability, we got it all.

I need awesome gear... I'd like a free gear catalog!
My opinion is awesome. I'd like to take a gear survey
