The funny thing about the XB-2 is that despite it is somewhat older than

the new XB-1 and XK-2, it does sound a lot better. You do not have all the
edit-possibilities, and you even have some stupid ways of programming, but
analyzing the sound it is actually better.

The XB-1 and big brother XK-2, does have a lot of usefull and nice

features, but the sound is different. Some like it better than the XB-2.
Again a matter of taste.

If you put the keyboards through a leslie the result does become a lot

better.

And there you are, for me the XK-2 on a Leslie 147 was an amazing

experience.

As a back-saving Hammond these keyboard organs does it very well. Also the

double manual version - XB-5 - or just the top of the XB-3, has had great
success through leslie. I have seen several XB-3's top only in flight
design, that really did an amazing job.

I also do recall that Mr. McGriff played the XB3 on a 722 solid state

leslie at a festival, and everybody talked about the good sound from the old
Hammond and tupe-leslie. They where very surpriced when they learned that
the this was the new digital stuff and solid state leslie.

I believe that it is very much a matter of hooking up a good combination

and do the job on the registrations etc.

Best regards
Lars

I think the B4 sounds weak at best! I had a Farfisa that had more balls.

I

don't mean to be a purist but lets get real. The closest thing I've heard

is

the XB-2 (which I use for small gigs) and even that can readily be

identified

as a clone. If anyone takes exception to my opinion, sound off, I can

take

it. But lastly, a hammond clone is better than no hammond at all.

Bob, an

old hippie fart.
