Farfisa T-Shirts
Description: Farfisa Electronic Instruments was formed after three Italian accordion manufacturers combined to form a single company. They began to produce electronic instruments in the late 1950s, and combo organs. Popular models included the Compact series introduced in 1964, the Professional in 1967, the FAST in 1968 and the VIP in 1970. The success of Farfisa organs declined with the increased popularity of electronic organs in rock groups during the '70s, and in response the company produced models that could emulate the most popular makes, and introduced electronic pianos and synthesizers. Farfisa Electronic Instruments saw a bit of a revival in the late 1970s as part of the new wave movement, and the final models were produced in the early 1980s.
Description: The Philicorda was an electronic organ first produced in the 1960s by Philips. It was Philips' first entry into musical instruments and targeted the home market. In recent years, the organ has undergone a revival. Notable users include Nick Power of The Coral and Teenage Fanclub's Norman Blake. The Philicorda also features on 19.
