I was interested to read this post as I have found playing the organ
and/or clone to be the most difficult of pastimes. I find that I
generally sound better on the piano or keyboard synth. It is the very
simplicity of sound and the continuing tone which seems to make
playing need so much more effort to make it sound really good.
It seems to be the easiest instrument to take up in the first place,
and then it fast becomes the most difficult to really get to grips
with.

How do other clonewheelers rate playing the instrument ( clone/organ )
compared with other instruments that they may have also played?
