The Hammond SKX hits the nail on the head in terms of portability and functionality.

The Hammond SKX evolved from the SK line as a result of design suggestions from professionals and hobbyists and has become a hugely popular choice for Hammond enthusiasts.

This Dual-manual Digital Organ combines an authentic Hammond Organ (packed with features) with a whole array of keyboard voices making it a hugely versatile instrument. Despite the fact that it is feature rich, the instrument is lightweight at just 47.2 pounds.
