Sounds like my Gibson G101. But it could also be one of its sound-alike "cousins," the Lowrey T2, Gibson G201 or even some Lowrey spinets of the era that had similar technology and voicing.  Or a Kalamazoo K101, which was identical to the G101 except for the branding.  Or a digital version of any of the above.

So many possibilities...

Still have not found me a Gibson yet lol.. but I recently bought the Arturia V collection software and it had a farfisa with a preset called lucy for lucy in the sky with diamonds. It sounded a lot like a gibson so i tweaked around a little and it is pretty good.

Alan Lenhoff

Yes, that's a very nice digital emulation. Nice job on the tweaking!

Wow, that is good. I'm assuming you can't alter the sound much beyond that, (sustain, repeat, etc) but that is the best sample I've heard of these.

Actually indeed you can. It's sort of half Farfisa sample half virtual instrument. There is a repeat actually built into the software of it also and sustain on it is adjustable. Maybe I can make a video showing these also.

Awesome. I wish I had a way to use stuff like that.
