Bellow is some information taken from – http://www.mickbordet.com/inst/organ
J Busilacchio Electric Reed Organ
This is a keyboard organ in a suitcase. Turn it on and a fan starts pumping a cool breeze across your fingers and youre ready to go. It has a great sound effectively its a harmonium without the bellows, or a horizonal accordion. The air gets pumped over metal reeds which results in a rich sound a bit like a pipe organ with a bad cold not as bold or clear, but with a dignified, if slightly dishevelled, air. Its defintely more Ivor Cutler than Van der Graaf Generator, but thats certainly no bad thing.
Theres really not a lot of information available about these they do crop up fairly regularly in online auctions, along with similar items by other manufacturers. They are often described as dating from the 40s, which is a little hard to believe, as they have more of a 60s feel to them. Theyre also known as Chord Organs, Fan Organs, and probably other less complimentary names too.There are also different variations. There is what you might call the Mk1 Chord Version, which is what we use, and has a panel to the left of the keyboard allowing basic chords and bass notes to be played with one or two fingers, or theres the Mk1 Standard, which lacks the chord buttons, but has a longer, octave keyboard instead of just octave.
