This is a prototype tonegenerator where there is no proof of any licence , it came out of the former factory of Hammond Organ Antwerp in Belgium , , the Hammond factory in Antwerp dissapeared in the 70's as The 'Hammond' brandname was taken over by other company's later on . the prototype is in my possesion . It was given to me by the sons of the deceased Mr Werner De Bondt , Belgium , the man who invented this generator as a replacement for the original magnetic tonewheel generator. Only one L100P organ seems to be built with this generator functioning, sadly this organ had served for all kinds of experiments and dissapeared in time , only this TG remains as testimony of the new invention of that time .

This prototype will be restored to function and adjusted by me , and later on made possible to connect up to an old original Hammond L100P from that period , as it was designed for .

The hammond L100P was a pure Belgian product , the first portable hammond Tonewheel organ that took apart in two pieces , it was the brainchild of Mr Werner De Bondt who had these organs produced in the Antwerp Hammond PLant and exported allover the world and mainly to the USA , this from the small Belgian based Antwerp Hammond Factory

This light-based Tonewheel generator must make the L100P more lighter in weight and more accesable for service , also cheaper in production and faster to produce .

In later years mr De Bond built his own pipeorgans and also newer organs based on syntheziser chips .His sons are still alive and gave me testimony about these facts . B.M.
