    The Doctor Fishsticks Leslie Motor Control
    This motor control unit can eliminate the need for complicated multi-pin connectors, can allow you to use an external amp with the Leslie, or modify a guitar Leslie that's missing it's expensive control box.
    For the 122:   As you may know the DC switching voltage of a 122 has made quality, affordable controllers nearly impossible. Until now. By “taking over” the switching duties, this controller eliminates the need to send DC voltage down the audio line. Also it adds the motors off feature making the Leslie three speed (optionally).  And there doesn't have to be ANY modifications or harm to the Leslie.    (sorry this doesn't work with the rare and unusual 122a by Suzuki)
    THERE ARE TWO VERSIONS OF THIS CONTROLLER!
    I also offer the "Leslie Motor Control II" which is the same thing with a shorter power cable, and no on/off switch on the box, it powers off of the Leslie's fast motor plug,  this is ideal for this 122/147 modification.
    PLEASE BE SURE YOU'RE ORDERING THE RIGHT ONE
    This controller will supply power and switching to the motors so all you have to worry about is getting the audio signal to the speaker.   I've sold hundreds of these units, and have gotten nothing but positive feedback, this is a great solution to many of your Leslie hook up problem.
    The box can be kept around the back of the Leslie plugs into AC wall voltage to give power to the speaker's amp, the motor plug into it instead of the Leslie amp, the switch uses -5v DC so they've perfectly safe (unlike some stock relays that send half of 120v AC to your switch.
    This auction doesn't include a switch, I do sell one with a dual footswitch, check my other auctions or contract me if you don't see one here on ebay.   Most generic, latching dual footswitches will work.  If you want to use a half moon switch, most of the modern half moons repros will work with this, or I will rewire your vintage half moon switch (any three way switch) for you no charge as long as your pay the shipping.
    Check my other auctions for other Leslie controller innovations, or contact me directly for a consultation.
    Keep in mind, if you don't like it you can put it all back in the box and and send it back for a refund within 7 days of receiving it, but I am confident you will like it and so far have received NO requests to return any of these controllers.
    Feel free to ask questions through the ebay system, but please be sure all messages start with telling me exactly which Leslie you are using or hope to use, and what you intend to plug into it.
    Why Fishsticks?!?
    Um... There are a few reasons. I have a 1984 Mercedes diesel that I converted to run on waste veggie oil, that kinds smells like fishsticks, so I first named that Dr. Fishsticks. I wanted to choose a name for these controllers that would let you know that I'm not one of those way to uptight, grumpy, Hammond organ guys, that I am a guy in my converted garage workshop making this stuff for you. I don't have a clear coat on my online presence pretending to be a big operation, I'm a one-man operation, and proud of it. I am a piano technician, a tube amp and Hammond/Leslie repair man, and a player, and have been for 15 years.   Also, I like fishsticks.
    Thanks for your interest!
