know that it can sound like a million+ possibilities. They also can be fooled by the right combination of tone and effect. I've heard a chordovox in a leslie that would make Groove Holmes turn his head.

There is no ONE sound that defines a B3 more than the leslie, itself. The key click and percussion etc ..... are all secondary to that doplar effect that whizzes the air around the room.

A B3 is as personal as the player on it, but there are many worthy contenders in the UNDER 410lb catagory that I just love.
