Generator Restoration

Rebecca and I started ProKeys many years ago.  We worked and learned together, to keep my own Hammonds and Leslies sounding right.  The very first Hammond we rebuilt together was in 1969.  It belonged to a keyboard player in Memphis.  Through the years, we made many mistakes and discoveries, and came up with plenty of ideas - some were good, some were not very good.  We really enjoyed experimenting with new ideas. 

 

We loved getting Hammonds and Leslies to sound and work great.  If this web site gives the impression that we were doing full time Hammond technical work, that's incorrect.  Our work with Hammonds was always a part time hobby, a joy, frustration, and an extension of the love, loyalty, and respect that we felt for our own Hammonds and Leslies.

 

Rebecca died on August 21, 2003, and ProKeys died then, too.  She helped create this website, worked tirelessly on more Hammonds than anyone could ever imagine.  The word "ProKeys" was Rebecca's idea, and is respectfully dedicated to her memory.

 

At ProKeys, we were full time perfectionists
