I don't know what to say, Donny. I'm flabbergasted at your remarks. Would ou say the same for the accordion? I could definitely do a "power solo" gig with just a B3 (and maybe a SR16 drum machine for funs). Hammond-Suzuki never really marketed their Hammond arrangers in the US, but the ones I saw were something that I would have liked to play too. I sold my M-100 for the price of the 145 Leslie that went with it - big mistake. Any of those original Hammond models are still worth whatever they're going for. They are classic instruments.
