The Skx Stage Keyboard is most compact and lightest-weight full-featured dual-manual organ Hammond has ever made. Evolving from the company's acclaimed Sk range keyboards, the Skx incorporates design recommendations from dedicated Hammond organists worldwide. The result is the best Sk yet - a serious professional instrument with three sets of Harmonic Drawbars, Vibrato-Chorus, Touch-Response Percussion, and digital Leslie; as well as a complete palette of the most coveted Keyboard Voices, such as Grand Pianos, Electric Pianos, Clavs, Orchestral and Percussive voices, and more; any of which can be combined with the Tonewheel voices, or with each other, in the Skx's dual Extra Voice divisions. In the Organ division, you have 32 ranks of Hi-Def Classical Pipe Organ voices, as well as meticulous models of two popular 1960s combo organs that play exactly like the originals.
For room monitoring, the Hammond SKX audio outs were sent to a Leslie LS2215 200W Stereo Keyboard Amp:

You play with soul, Reverend! Thanks for the demonstration.
😎👍
I have this Hammond. I love it. If you're considering this, get it.
Admittedly, it sounds way better with Rev Jimmy playing it than me.
Love this video. My SKX is being delivered tomorrow!
Nice. I like this for my own personal use, I'm not ready for it in church yet. I still like the traditional Hammond organs ( A,B,C,D and RT series)
Amen! The Reverend is killin it! Great playing!
Excellent!
Sounds Good!!! I might have to get me one
This guy can really rip the blues; great stuff!
Love to get one!
What I like about this version, is that the drawbars are not shared between the upper, lower and pedals as they each have thheir own set of drawbars, plus pedal sustain not offered by any compeditors.
Yessir... That's a powerful instrument
Such a good channel with good contents but very few likes and view. Why so?
Wish he would've demoed thru an actual Leslie too
Ok, so this was "new" over 5 years ago. My question is, does Hammond still produce this model?
If so, while I noticed the gray button for Leslie, is there also a 1/2 moon Leslie switch available for the SKX ?
It sure sounds great! I haven't followed Hammond in a long while, so I had no idea that this instrument also had other sounds, like piano and synth. Very nice!
Oh... and is it safe to assume that there are a couple of models of bass assemblies?
Like standard spinet size and full concert bass pedal types? Do they connect directly into the SKX so that you're not messing with other MIDI controllers and outputs?
All-in-one, as it were?
👏👏👏👏
Questions-can one get a piano sound on the top keyboard while getting the standard organ manual bass and-or Rhodes bass on the bottom manual; AND can both manuals be split so that they can be sent into 2 separate amplifiers?
Great question! You can split the keyboard to put piano and bass on each manual respectively. The outputs can be split, but only if using the dedicated Leslie Speaker output for the Organ section and the regular audio outputs for the extra voice. If you want to go into more detail, feel free to reach out. Thanks!

@@sweetwater Imagine if Messrs. Cavaliere and Manzarek had one of those!
Should I buy this or the sk2
That looks cool, and I don't even play organ.
I felt the Lord
It is too bad that Hammond/Suzuki did away with the 935 church organ. The 935 was based on the original Hammond 820 church organ, as all of the series from 820, 825 and finally 935 being the very last with a combination cathedral organ and drawbar organ. The 820 was analog as when the 825 came out in the mid 1980s, was totally digital as the last version 935. What is good is that the SK series has pipe organ samples.
I like the Leslie stationary keyboard speaker, the organs sounds, and the extra voices. I don't like the digital Leslie that much it sounds like the Leslie pedal which is okay but not the best simulator. I like Rev. Smith's playing alot.
Michael Thigpen I agree
What bass pedals can be used with this?
Hi Julian. Any MIDI source that sends MIDI Notes on the MIDI Channel you've chosen for Pedals (on your SKX) will play the Pedal part. Thanks for watching. -_Daniel_
Why wouldn't you want the Hammond to sound like a piano ?
Did they improve the keybed? The sk series was the worst keybed ever!
I hope so the Fatar keybed should have lighter springs
3 sets of drawer bars? That's what's already wrong! NOTHING LIKE A B3!
C3 as well
HIRE HIM
im only buing it if it has a rhodes built in - and a minimoog for that matter. seriously now, a hammond without a tonewheel generator is not a hammond period. i just bought an old one so i know. they will never get me with this digital bullshittery. REINVENT THE TONEWHEEL GENERATOR and we are talking.
Well yeah I have to korrekt that. I now play a digital Hammond called ferrofish b4000+ and it's every bit as cool as a real Hammond. Actually it let's you dial in thousands of different Hammonds. Tonewheel still wins but this one is cool.
Hammond stopped building tonewheels because they were so expensive to make relative to what they could be sold for. The same is true today, cost difference between circuit boards/microchips vs electro mechanical actual moving machinery is huge. To build a tonewheel today would probably be around 40-50k. Then there’s the whole issue about the massive weight, the amount of space it takes up, etc. I love a genuine old tw, I learned on an rt3 but I couldn’t have one in the house.
