The Hohner Symphonic 30N isn’t just a vintage organ – it’s a conversation piece, a collector’s gem, and a fantastic source of analog-style sound.

With 8 different tones that can be combined in any order the sound variations are endles. It can shift from classic organ tones to rich, synth-like textures. Whether you’re a musician looking for inspiration or a collector searching for something special, this model delivers.

Highlights:
> Beautiful vintage design
> Unique, tube analog-inspired sound character
> 8 different sounds for flexible tone creation
Original attachable legs stored in lid
> Heavy-duty case included for safe transport
> Modern power cable included

This instrument showcases classic German engineering at its finest – sturdy, stylish, and built to last.

The Led Zeppelin Connection: This is the exact "mystery organ" model often seen in photos of John Paul Jones during Led Zeppelin's 1971–1972 tours. He famously placed it on top of his Fender Rhodes or Hohner ElectraPiano (which was also tube-based). It provided the reedy, aggressive organ textures for songs like "Dancing Days" and was a staple of their early '70s stage plot.
