    Hi everyone,

    Would any of you know what manufacturer and model this small white synth / combo organ that the woman is playing in this video?

    It can be best viewed at these times in the video: at 58 seconds to 59 seconds 2:24-25 and 2:28-2:29.



    Also, do you know the manufacturer and model of the larger (bottom) organ / synth pictured at this link ? It is similar to the one played in the video, though not the same.

    thanks,

    Hi Macy, welcome to Keyboard Forums!

    I'm afraid I can't view that video from the UK, do you have any pictures that you can share?

    Hi Becky,

    Thanks for your note. Here is the closest thing to a photo I have.

    I'd like to know the make of any of these small white keyboards, particularly the largest one, on the bottom.

    Cheers again,

    Macy

    It looks like a portable reed organ (seeing as it has no drawbars or buttons). I used to have something very similar with chord buttons to the left (known as a chord organ).
    They are basically like a harmonium with and electric motor blowing the air.

    Have a look at

    Thank you Y-Man. This is likely the answer and the link I've been searching for. I really appreciate your assistance. Cheers, Macy

    Hej, hej Macy,

    I don't think that the instrument on your photo is a Busilacchio or a Lorenzo organ, because the organ on your photo ends on the right side with a G-note but the Busilacchio and the Lorenzo ones end both with a full octave, a C-note.

    With regards
