What would a perfect shape Whitehall Organ Combo 6640 be worth?

It depends on how bad somebody wants one. For example if you are more interested on Elka combos you might by a Whitehall if you got it for a "no-brainer" price. But if you are looking to recapture the lost instrument of your long gone youth, the one you sold and regretted, you might be willing to pay more.
Do you have one? Can you put up some pictures?

I've seen them go for a couple hundred dollars on eBay.
On the other hand, I got one in perfect working order for $40 a couple years back. It was listed on Craigslist for $25 (as a "child's toy"). I emailed and the guy said to come the next day. I called a bit later and he said someone else offered $35. I offered $40 and he said, "OK, come tomorrow afternoon."

My Uncle had one in his closet. I now own it. Cool sound to it.

Hi! I've got a Whitehall 6640 (branded as a National). Does anyone have schematics or a service manual, or anything like that? I want to get mine serviced, or try to fix a few things myself, but I need some documentation to get things happening, I think.  that would be much appreciated! I have non-working C# and F# oscillator boards (the slots are fine, as other oscillator boards work if put into those slots), and the bass keys don't make sound, so I guess the bass board is gone too. Probably just a matter of replacing the capacitors and resistors or whatnot, hopefully! If anyone has spare working C# or F# oscillator boards for it, I'd be interested in buying them. - Murray |

I bought a Whitehall Grand Prix For thirty bucks. The fuse and Cap was gone and the Power cord was Cut. I hooked up a Polarized two prong cord with the larger prong as a the negative or uncharged. I put a 2 amp 250 watt fuse and used a different fuse cap to finish the connection. I don't know the average fuse size amp or volts, and I don't know if i need a certain gauge wire or volts coming in. I used the cord from a old lamp. Please, If you can tell me anything about this organ and what i can do to get it to turn on, respond. It didn't turn on when I hit the switch. Any suggestions?
