Hammond Melodion PRO 44HP v2

The New Hammond Melodions feature a built-in microphone that gives a powerful and accurate tone surpassing the use of an external microphone. Just plug in to an amplifier, P.A., (or even a LESLIE™) using a normal ¼" cable and hit the stage! "Key click" is minimized, and the use of equalizers and outboard effects become easy. Your sound will cut through, with clarity and high energy. The built-in microphone lets you move freely onstage while playing your Hammond Melodion. When you get to the Studio, the selection of standard and optional mouthpieces allow different configurations, including placement of your Melodion atop an Organ or Piano, playing it like a regular keyboard. The PRO-44HP is the "High- Power" Melodion also incorporating a built-in Dynamic Microphone. The 44HP is a step beyond the 44H, featuring new reeds that give a brighter and louder tone. The perforated body allows easier tonal escape, making this model perfect for use in an electric band. And in the V2 version, the microphone unit used for the pickup has been renewed. In particular, as the mid-high sound performance has been improved, so the sound when connected to an amplifier becomes more clear, natural and conveys the music expression realistically.
