Gandert,
Design philosophy of a Hi-Fi amp is that it should have no "sound" of it's
own, i.e. should neither add to or remove anything from the original signal,
just amplify "transparently". On the other hand the designer of a musical
instrument amp does not have to restrict himself to building a design that
has an absolutely flat frequency response and as near zero distortion as
possible. Bumps and troughs in the frequency response may actually be
desirable if the end result complements the instrument and produces a
pleasing overall sound. Similarly distortion is not always an evil to be
removed at any cost, the right type of distortion adds character and warmth
to the sound of an organ or electric guitar, but would be unacceptable in a
music reproduction system.
I know my electric guitar sounds terrible played through a Hi-Fi system, I
suspect Hammond organ would also.

Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. Douglas Adams
