I'm no expert, but I think that the Hammonds had a separate amp and
a separate reverb assembly - I've heard of people scuttling old
Hammonds to extract the amp section to use for ham radio purposes
(of course, there could be some guitar amp applications there too!).
The "original" Hammond organ reverb units were used as the basis for
the Fender 6G15 circuit, so if you have an older organ, you may have
something pretty close to a vintage reverb tank circuit. Of course,
you'll have to deal with power supplies, mounting the reverb pan,
and stuff like that, but I think you have a good chance of getting a
decent reverb unit out of that thing.
Let us know how it goes!
