    Baldwin electronic organ - to go pick up for scrap?

    This could have fit in several different forums, so please forgive me if I am putting it into the wrong one.

    Do you guys think this is worth picking up?

    Free Baldwin Organ & T.V's

    That location isn't too far from my father's house. I could spin by there to visit the family and pick up that organ (if it's worth it) and several televisions. (Clearly the e-waste is worth it, depending on the volume, but I might not be able to go there specifically for the TVs alone.)

    What do you guys think? If I get at least one or two people who believe it's worth it, I'm going to go over there ASAP, first thing after I get out of work.

    Thanks!

    i scrapped an electric organ recently. it was more fun than worth the parts. there were some mid grade boards which i got some removable eproms out of, a whole wiring harness which might have weighed a pound, a nice little transformer which was about the size of a baseball and a speaker plus a coulple of steel structural framed pieces.

    on the whole it was a hollow wood structure with plastic keys and i didnt have much use for it. the bench was nice though, i kept it as furniture for a side table in my entrance way. dark finish. nice piece.

    dont expect much out of it, but if its free and easy and you can afford to get rid of the wood and plastic, might as well. i will scrap anything. i just scrapped a heating blanket today

    Check to see if it has a Leslie speaker. It's type of speaker that spins giving a unique sound. Do a google search and completed sales on eBay. Mike
