Subject:Analog Korg CX3

Hey guys,

Our group, Turning Point Praise, is planning a fall tour and we are
still in need of a portable Hammond organ for me to play. In the two
events we've sung at so far, there was no organ. The church we sang at
had a Hammond but it looked like a late solid-state model and we
couldn't get any sound out of it. My music director found a 1979 Korg
CX3 on Ebay with a current bid of $500. The auction has a YouTube video
on it and after watching it, I'm really impressed with how it sounds.
The seller was running it through a real Leslie though which I know will
make all the difference in the world.

My question is, what are my options for connecting it to a Leslie. Does
the original CX-3 have a Leslie output? I was thinking maybe the Trek II
pedal preamp might be the only option, other than Speakeasy. The budget
is very small though so spending $400 on a connector kit is probably out
of the question if we have to spend $500+ on the organ itself.

Thanks for any advice!
