A B-3? They arr Awful... Heavy...maintenance is horrific.

Leslie's add more mechanical parts to replace...wood to polish and glue back in shape...tubes, belts and capacitors to replace

I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY!

Torn Rotator and all, I'll have a working, fire breathing real B-3 until I can't climb onto the bench.

If you haven't been there, you won't understand.

You don't play nursing home appropriate music on a B-3. And they don't pay nearly enough to incur the expense.

But, man, on the right stage, with the right audience and the right sidemen it's life affirming.
