See zolophile (RSS) for more.

"The Professional is quite rare these days--especially one in great, fully functional condition. The Professional has a sound distinct from other Farfisas I've played. It sounds more 70's than 60's, though it is capable of the nasal transistor sound. It has more tabs and harmonics than other combo organs, in addition to a flexible percussion section and unique sustain controls."
