Is the organ playable even though is makes this buzzing sound? And are there other faults on it? (Did you try to fix it yet?) And... can you tell me what model it is? Sorry for these many questions. ;)

This is beautiful, Is it the B3? I'm pretty sure I have a few ideas to locate the source of the buzzing - it's usually circuitry or dust collection in valves etc on the inner workings (I collect and cosmetically restore/retro-revive vintage audio equipment and also do sound design and tech for a music collective). Failing that I have a couple of friends who would love to have a crack at reclaiming sound clarity. We've been after one like this for years for our practice room/studio with the aim of recording it. We actually have a track in production that is missing a resonant bass tone and this could very well be our missing harmonious link. Is an audio output, possibly for a headphone jack or amplification (it's not a deal breaker, more wishful thinking as I would like to route the output to an multi-fx panel to experiment with the sound)?
