Kaveri löysi kaatopaikalta "Elka Tornado IV" merkkisen combourun. Testasin sitä pikaisesti ja se toimii (paitsi vibrato ja bass kytkimet ei tuntuneet tekevän mitään).
 
Melko lailla saman näköinen kuin ylin kuva tuolla sivulla http://www.combo-organ.com/Elka/index.htm
 
Saan tuon ilmaiseksi ja sitten pääsen tutkimaan tarkemmin. Soundi on kyllä juuri sellainen mitä olen kaivannut. Jalusta ja pedaali ovat valitettavasti hukassa.

Luulisinpa, että noissa mainitaan sama vehje:

"You see this thing?" he said, pointing at a small organ. "It's very, very cheap. I mean it's for babies. But I have some modifications - secret modifications - and you see it sounds incredible because it's the way to use things, you know."
 
What is it?
 
"A 'Tornado 4', I think."
 
Who makes it?
 
"Oh, I don't know."
 
Vangelis wasn't being too specific. Still, I perservered.
 
"Most musicians buy by fashion. They go into a shop and say: 'okay, what is in fashion?' It's not the right way. Many times I have bought things that nobody buy, like this Italian thing. The shops say to me: 'you are crazy to buy this' and I say: 'okay, it's my choice.'
 
"I bought this in a child department, and the assistant said: 'you are a professional musician, I can't sell it to you.' I said: 'don't worry, I want it."
