The Thomas Organ Company is a manufacturer of electronic keyboards and a one-time holder of the manufacturing rights to the Moog synthesizer. The Company was a force behind early electronic organs for the home.

Founded by Edward G. Thomas as the "Thomas Organ & Piano Co." in 1875, the company's first instruments were pipe organs, moving later to pump organs. In the early 1950s, George Thomas invented the Thomas electronic organ with its single manual and ten stops.

Thomas reorganized the company in 1956 into the Thomas Organ Company of Sepulveda, California.

Unlike later electronic organs with conventional tab stops, early Thomas electronic organs utilized a dial control for their stops, presumably to add a certain familiarity to its users since the dials worked much like those on a radio or television. This may be evidenced by the introduction of the Talking Organ with its "Built-In Teacher," a phonograph intended for use with instructional recordings.

Introduced in 1967, the Vox Clyde McCoy Wah-Wah pedal was the most significant guitar effect of its time. Invented by a young engineer named Brad Plunkett, who worked for the Thomas Organ company —Vox/JMI’s U.S. counterpart—the wah circuit basically sprang from the 3-position midrange voicing function used on the Vox Super Beatle amplifier.
