When I was a kid I coveted this organ like it was the holy grail--I never did get one, and this particular Ace Tone model, which came out within a couple of years of Ace Tone closing up shop, appears to have almost disappeared from the face of the earth. I can't even find one that needs repair. Anyone ever own one, or has anyone seen one for sale recently?

There's more info on it here: combo-organ.com/AceTone/index.htm#TOP-9I do, however, have a Top-8, which is pretty d**n great.

When I was in high school, there were two music shops within walking distance of the school, both of which carried it for a time, and I would often go to either one just to admire the Top 9. At the time the list was something like $800.00, but one store I recall had it on sale for $595.00-- not counting the amp to drive it of course, or the optional bass pedals, etc.--anyway, it was a lot of money for a kid my age, and that would have which would been 1970 or so. It was simply the most beautiful instrument I had ever seen. I now have a picture of it hanging in my music room, just as a reminder of such youthful dreams. Hopefully I'll find it again one day, working or not, and make it a grand refurbishing project.

Hmm...How much do you want for it? Any interest in trades? What kind of shape is yours in?
