Hammond XK-1       
 

The Hammond XK-1 Keyboard delivers incomparably fat and distinctively classic Hammond B3 sound in a slim, portable package!
Powered by two VASE III DTW generators, the most advanced tone wheel generators ever designed, this new 61-note console utilises many of the outstanding features and sounds of the awesome XK-3 at an incredible price.

 

Some of the most exciting features of the new XK-1 include it’s impressive portability and the addition of eight extra voice sounds such as electric piano. The authentic... More Hammond drawbars and spectacular in-built effects make the XK-1 the best buy in its product class.

 

Housed in a new lightweight walnut cabinet (only 19kgs.), the XK1 is all Hammond, with velocity sensing waterfall style keys, 9 honest-to-Hammond harmonic drawbars with 2nd and 3rd Percussion and Fast/ Soft decay, adjustable touch, velocity, plus eight more keyboard voices (3 electric pianos, 2 Clavs, Vibes and 2 Solo Lead), an internal 2-digital-rotor Leslie (On/Slow, Fast, Brake), Vibrato, Chorus, Digital Overdrive, split keyboard/bass function, 132 presets, 20 character display, pitch bend and modulation wheel. Yep, it’s all there and it’s all authentic HAMMOND!
 
In 2006 the just-released Hammond XK-3 won International Keyboard Of the Year. Just wait till next year to see this little ripper up in lights.
