Dave,

I echo this sentiment completely. I tried for many gigs to get to the point where I could forget about gear and just play, but I was always tweaking the MS stuff. Slide the Leslie onstage and the sound is perfect. My Leslie is chopped into two pieces and fits easily in most cars. You'll likely spend less for the real thing and I know you'll love the sound. Just my $0.02 Can.

Dave-
Have you considered looking into a 145? The footprint isn't all that
different between the two but tonally there is a difference between a leslie
and motion sound-it seems like theres a midrange bump in the ms products
where as a leslie is more open and less shrill on the top end-my humble
opinion anyways. I LOVE my leslie and whenever I play thru my KBRM I just
don't seem to get that same enjoyment or that little extra spirited
playing. What I've noticed is that I always was fighting the tone,which kept
me from "playing" whereas now my focus is purely on the playing. I've also
noticed since using the speakeasy preamp I have enough volume where I don't
need reinforcement thru additional p.a.-or monitors, nd I play with some
pretty loud cats.
For years I struggled with my search for "the sound" and truly,in my own
opinion, you need the leslie to get "the sound". For a few more bucks than a
low-pro you can get a 145 and you'll NEVER regret it. I find very portable
too-I slip out of the mini-van onto a dolly and badaboom badabing-your in. I
move it myself and it's no big deal.
Good luck-
Bill
