Aeolian Hammond Roll Project
Dick Hack has come up with a proposal to recut the
Hammond BA (Aeolian Hammond) rolls. I am offering Dick web space for his project
but I am not in any way connected with the production or sale of these rolls. I
have purchased a number of recut rolls from Dick and have found the quality to
be excellent.
JBL
The timing is now right to do this project; Playrite has finished the project of
200 Duo-Art rolls (also 12 holes to the inch) and now the perforator is
available to do the Hammond rolls. Due to the complexity of changing the configuration
of the roll cutter this project is a now or probably never enterprise.
There will be two sets available. The first set is 35 rolls, and
represents a good mix of the better music at a reasonable price of $1085
($31/roll) for the complete set.
The second set of 55 rolls, in addition, will really make a nice library of
great music for those that want a large variety of music. This set will be
$1705 (also $31/roll).
You may order either set, or both. The rolls will be cut on high quality
paper, better than the original paper, and include quality boxes with labels.
The rolls will have labels, but will not have expression or stop information
printed on the rolls.
For those that do not know me, references are available. I have been doing
roll projects for about 15 years, and have handled the recutting of over 10,000
rolls for 7 different machines.

The selection of rolls on these lists are subject to minor changes if we are not
able to use an original roll (if it is damaged beyond practical repair or if the
wrong roll was in the box when catalogued). We also reserve the right to
substitute music if we determine that the arrangement on the original roll is
not good.
Terms are 1/2 of the set cost when reserving your set(s). The balance and
shipping (at $1.50/roll) will be due when the paper, boxes, flanges, and cores
arrive.
We anticipate that rolls will start shipping in several months.
Please call if you have any questions. Please make checks out to Hack
Mechanical Music.
Thank you.
