  • Hammond transformer data

    I recently purchase a parts lot. In the pile were three all black transformers that the seller told me were from an old Hammond organ. I cannot find any information on this transformers. Here are the only red markings on the transformers.

    Power transformer: 512-14511G
    Output transformer: 512-14598G
    Choke: 512-13926B

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    I found a reference to that choke as being used in a Baldwin Orgasonic organ and other references to Baldwin organs using transformers with manufacture code 512. Maybe it was a Baldwin not a Hammond?

      I think that you may be correct.

        Baldwin is the likely source. There are quite a few *oogle hits for Baldwin and those - or similar - part numbers. I got a 61P Baldwin power amp off *bay a few years ago, I can look at the part numbers to see if they are close or match. My iron is from a 2x 6L6 power section, if that helps.

          Thanks. I will seek out a few organ forums and ask the question.

          Is there a way that I can revise the heading of this post? If not I may start a new post using the word "Baldwin" instead of "Hammond".
