Well, actually, it seems to matter to many people...but, it seems, the majority are former B-3 owners/players.

I think they could have garnered the jazz organ crowd if they'd gone with drawbars (even optional) and a more conservative look(mainly the colour).

Yes, some people painted their B-3's different colours...and, I thought they looked stupid (the organs, not the people) , but that's just me...I liked the wood look...classy.

There's just something natural and warm about wooden cabinets....the B-3 looks, as Chas aptly put it, "regal".

Some people hear with their eyes, as well as their ears.
