Been a few years, I think. You aren't talking about the 'Mini B' are you? I played the B3Mk2 I think about five years ago or so...

To be honest, didn't like the action that much. Felt a little spongy compared to the vintage real deal... Great sound, though (heard it through a big Leslie).

Well that video was done in 2008... but I really think the instrument predates that. Could be wrong, though.

No, Donny, but you can imagine "I WANT IT"! Actually I recently sold my relatively new XK-1 system and replaced it with a refinished M-100-the one I hauled around fraternity parties and proms in college. Looking for a C-122 to refinish to match.

Finally deciding I can't buy every new toy that comes along...especially something this expensive.


LOVE IT, though,


Russ
