I am so lucky that one has a permanent home and gets played regularly.

When Big jobs come along, if needed, I move the B-3.

Russ,

Why can't you post some pictures of your setup before you pass on, wave we would love to see and hear if it's at all possible, and if it as to be jazz well so be it cool2

BTW take some pics of you changing the oil on the Hammonds too ... duel

Here's a chap who tells the truth "I'd play it sometimes". and Don your Doris would say " Don, you sounded much better on that Audya made it Italy, I don't know why you ever got rid of it, there was nothing wrong with it"

Marry Christmas Don

Tom, this certainly ticks all my B3 boxes

But you can still here the nasty plastic "single sound" hiding behind the overdrive, there is not enough 'body' and real Hammond is made up of so many discernible frequencies and overtones. Most modern arrangers will sound just as good as this guys clone through that Leslie. Nice player though, but not one for my MP3 collection. Amazing what a difference a Leslie makes though...good example video.

Listen to the frequency definition and overtones in this very clean studio recording, when you play a bunch of notes it should not be one sound, but a combination of loads of frequencies meshing together...thats the Hammond sound!:
