Your knowledge, experience and musical abilities are beyond mine. Thanks for the info. Booker T (and the MGs, including the Duck) got a nice sound out of his organ that I've never been able to exactly reproduce.turbo said:Thanks for the link. My college band featured a Hammond C3 console organ with a Leslie. Killer combo! The C3 was a PITA to move, but at least it was better than a B. Porta-Bs came out many years later, but IMO, the sound was not the same.
