Dual waterfall manuals, 25-note pedalboard, VASE III engine, reverse-key presets, onboard Digital Leslie, 150W amp with 5 speakers, compact A-100 inspired design
The Hammond A-162 is a modern reimagining of the iconic A-100, bringing the rich, soulful sound of the original into the 21st century with groundbreaking enhancements. Powered by the same VASE III digital tone engine found in the flagship B-3mkII, the A-162 faithfully delivers the authentic Hammond tone, complete with reverse-key presets, Touch-Response Percussion, Chorus-Vibrato, and twin waterfall keyboards. A 25-note pedalboard and a full complement of organ features make it an ideal instrument for traditional players seeking the depth and warmth of a classic Hammond in a modern, compact design.
What sets the A-162 apart is its integrated 150-watt sound system featuring five robust speakers, including a dedicated 15" woofer for full-bodied bass and pedal tones. Unlike the original A-100, the A-162 includes a state-of-the-art Digital Leslie, with the option to connect an external Leslie speaker for expanded sound. Designed to be versatile and accessible, the A-162 fits beautifully in churches, schools, homes, and studios. It offers the nostalgic charm and tonal heritage of a vintage Hammond with the precision, customization, and reliability of today's digital technology-making it a timeless yet forward-looking choice for organists everywhere.
