It seems that I am full of questions.... Did the Rodgers 340 use 15° Sams on the stop rail and 22° on the back rail? I have to purchase several for the...
OK, Frank, I have more questions than you................. When you say 15 & 22 degree "SAMS", what is a SAMS? What are you expanding? Still learning, Jerry ...
Frank, When I added stops to my 340, I contacted Syndyne and spoke with a guy there that was most knowledgeable about Syndynes as they originally provided them...
Same for both - 15 degrees, soldered version. I have added 23 to my 340 console. The backrail has different engraving baselines to get that uniquely Rodgers...
I'm converting my Trio to an Artisan digital and making many changes in the specs. I'm using stop switches from a 1964 Allen. I should have expected a...
Hi Ian, What did you add stop/coupler wise to your 340? I've seen various Rodgers (factory) versions depending on what was ordered by the original customer. ...
Hi Ed, I completely respecified the instrument. This new 21 rank spec was devised by Neil Jensen and Simon Gledhill. I will send you an Excel spreadsheet of...
Hi All, Thanks to all for the info on the Stop Action Magnets. Ian I would also like a copy of the specs. I am confused tho.... my backrail is defiantly a...
Frank, I thought the stop rail SAMS and backrail SAMS on my 340 were different too, but discovered (in my case) that is was really an optical illusion. The ...
Hi Bob, You might have a point. I used a small square piece of card stock and with it square on the back rail and along side the tab, I drew a line along the...
Frank, Thanks for the subtle hint. I got it figured out. I also found the Artisan and the Syndyne Corporation websites. Wow! That's going to keep me busy...
The backrail stops look to be a different angle because they are. This is a consequence of the spacing wood that is installed under them, precisely to give...
Well, I've owned four 340's (from the very early #34316 thru to the 4th last #34377) and all of their backrails were constructed as I described on a previous...
The stop switches on my Trio are really only contact wires. The Hesco tabs have a shorting wire that makes the connection. I was going to keep them but Hesco...
I am selling at a very low price a Rodgers Trio Model 321 on e-bay. This would make a nice MIDI project for someone wanting a nice console for their Miditzer...
I was just replacing a noisy SAM (original) in my 340 console and this post bounced back into my mind. None of the new SAMs that I purchased from Syndyne are...
Im thinking of buying an Olympic, I just sold a Conn 650 but I have also got use to the quality of digital sounds, Ive not played the Olympic obviously its...
... be ... I wouldn't pay more than $3000 to $4000 for an Olympic in good, working order. It was definitely a great organ in the early seventies, even better...
Hi Steve, FWIW, If you can't locate or aren't overly thrilled with an "Olympic", why not consider a Conn 651 or 652?...Both have great sounds (but, admittedly,...
Hi, Connman! I used to play a Conn 652. Liked the percussions and the string celestes! It lacked a good clairinet, though, which was on the 650 and 651. So I...
Yea...I did the same Hammond trick for a Clarinet on my 652...Worked okay. I agree, the celestes and percussions were quite good for it's time. The Conn had...

When did Rodgers in the 60's make these 2 manual Theatre Organs, I never knew these existed. What were they called, or were these custom organs. Tom McNeely...
Hi, I have FOUR (4) Walker TP-3's. They are the speakers only, 2: 6 x 9's and tweeter on a Walker mounting board, NO speaker boxes. I brought these a few...
I just listed my three year old R211D on BartonTheatreorgans.com. It's a wonderful, fine sounding instrument. I plan to purchase a larger 3m TO once this is...

I'm totally torn between deciding on which one I want, either the Century 340 or the 36e. I would appreciate any input. The cost of the Century 340 is much...
Hi Chris, I have a friend with a 36E. It is a great system but is older technology. It uses a setter board for the combination action. It uses mechanical...
