Farisas:
I reccomend, if you are getting a farfisa, to get the red farfisa
compact. It was used on 96 tears and it's the unit that made the
definitive 'farfisa' sound, which is to say, one of the most god
awful organ sounds every if you ask a organ player. The Vox's are
gonna run you more esspecially if you're looking on ebay, and they
also don't have as many sounds as the Farfisa, but even though the
Vox doesn't do much it does what it needs to do damn well. I don't
know what your price range is for how much you want to spend, but i
know that Roland makes a V-combo that you can put an ultimate keys
expansion pack into it and get more than enough of the 'cheesy'
(please take no offence, becasue that's what the sound of those
organs are.) organ patches.
