Julian,
I can help you out with the CV/Trek II and a little on the refinishing question. I have a Trek II unit on my BV and it sounds great. You can install it, it's fairly simple. Contact me if you have problems and I can walk you through it. I wouldn't worry about the resale value to refinish it if it would look better to you. CV/BVs sound great but people just want the C3 B3 for, I guess, nostagia reasons and some swear it is the ONLY organ for them but if you can get basically the same result with a CV, so install the Trek II and you will be amazed! A CV/BV with percussion sounds better to me as I have had two B3s and either one didn't sound as good. I had my BV walnut color matched to my Leslie 122 and as far as the resale, it's worth a million dollars to me as I will probably keep this one in my living room. Hope this helps...Eddie

Hello guys,
As some of you know I had an awful accident with my B3 some time ago. It
got burned by a flaming drink! I did however do the repairs myself and it
turned out pretty good.
My question now is.........I have recently purchased a CV and will be adding
the Trek 2 perc to it. Is this perc all it is cut out to be? I am working
on getting a cheap mans version of the C3. Can I instal the perc myself?
(little electronics experience)
One other point......this new CV I am getting has quite a few little dings
in the finish. I would like to refinish the whole unit but am curious if
this will seriously harm the resale value. Is original finish with nics
worth more than a nicely done aftermarket finish...btw I would try and keep
the finish as close to original as possible.
Thanks,
Julian
