1960s Philicorda organ (Clinic/The Coral) for sale
I'm selling my Philips Philicorda GM 751 organ, which was probably made in the late 1960s. Philicordas have been used by a number of bands like Clinic and The Coral, so if you know what the organ sounds like on their records then you'll recognise the sound. In fact if you look at Clinic's latest video you can see some shots of a GM 751, or you can have a look at these two webpages:

or listen to some samples of the very similar GM 754 on this page:

My particular example isn't in perfect condition - it's a German model, and had a rough journey over the channel to me when I bought it. In particular, its reverb unit has never worked for me, and there are some chips out of the woodwork. It's also missing the original volume pedal, music stand and the legs, though I'll throw in a sturdy keyboard stand to make up for the latter.
If anyone reading this is interested, I'm open to offers before I eBay it. However, it'd need to be picked up from my house in East London as I'm not keen on couriering it and I don't have a car.
