Powered by the same VASE III digital tone engine found in the flagship B-3mkII, the A-162 faithfully delivers the authentic Hammond tone, complete with reverse-key presets, Touch-Response Percussion, Chorus-Vibrato, and twin waterfall keyboards. A 25-note pedalboard and a full complement of organ features make it an ideal instrument for traditional players seeking the depth and warmth of a classic Hammond in a modern, compact design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the A-162 apart is its integrated 150-watt sound system featuring five robust speakers, including a dedicated 15\" woofer for full-bodied bass and pedal tones. Unlike the original A-100, the A-162 includes a state-of-the-art Digital Leslie, with the option to connect an external Leslie speaker for expanded sound. Designed to be versatile and accessible, the A-162 fits beautifully in churches, schools, homes, and studios. It offers the nostalgic charm and tonal heritage of a vintage Hammond with the precision, customization, and reliability of today's digital technology-making it a timeless yet forward-looking choice for organists everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspired by the A-100: Modern recreation of the beloved 1960s Hammond A-100, now with advanced digital features.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Hammond Sound: Powered by the same VASE III tone engine as the flagship B-3mkII for classic organ tones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFamiliar Controls: Includes reverse-key presets, Touch-Response Percussion, Chorus-Vibrato, and twin waterfall keyboards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-In Speaker System: 150-watt onboard sound with five speakers, including a 15\" woofer for rich bass response.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital Leslie Included: State-of-the-art rotary speaker emulation adds authentic swirling tones without external gear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhysical Leslie Compatible: Option to connect a traditional Leslie speaker for expanded sonic possibilities.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and Versatile: Small footprint ideal for churches, schools, studios, or home use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModern Control and Customization: Offers detailed control of tone and response with digital precision and reliability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBudget-Friendly Legacy: Delivers iconic Hammond performance at an accessible price point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Overview\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: A 162\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspiration: Based on the original A 100 model from the 1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: Compact footprint, self contained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse Case: Ideal for churches, chapels, schools, homes, and studios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSound Engine and Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound Engine: VASE III tonal generator (same as B 3mkII)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresets: Reverse key presets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffects: Touch response percussion and chorus vibrato\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeyboards: Dual 61 note waterfall manuals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePedalboard: 25 note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudio System\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmplification: 150 watt onboard sound system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeaker Configuration: 5 speakers including one 15 inch woofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound Output: Full range including rich bass and pedal tones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeslie and Connectivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital Leslie: Built in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeslie Compatibility: Supports external physical Leslie speaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigital Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustomization: Full control over tonal characteristics and performance settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnology: Digital replication of vintage organ functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdaptability: Precise user adjustments for personal sound preferences\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFootprint: Compact and self contained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePortability: Designed for small spaces and ease of setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hammond","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43947315396687,"sku":"60-20011","price":20339.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/9466\/9382\/files\/24023_full_bf2583a8-8d44-4aa1-a0a3-3b63e9a831bf.webp?v=1765819424","url":"https:\/\/shop.musicredone.com\/products\/hammond-model-a-162-console-organ","provider":"RedOne Music Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
