Yep, they're nice to dream about, but a nightmare as regular gigging keyboards..

I have to confess, right now if someone offered me a B3 and a couple of Leslies for the same price as a C2 and a couple of Motion Pro 145's, I'd take the Nord in a heartbeat...

We've got a B3 and a 147 at the studio, and you are right... noisy as hell! Of course, for what we mostly do (alt rock, blues rock, etc.) you don't need a whole lot of subtlety
