Gary,
Before going through the considerable expense of a new keyboard, you
might want to look at a tube preamp first. They really bring out the
fullness to your sound & you may be able to save some cash.
I use the Speakeasy vintage tube preamp with excellent results. I
run it with a Hammond XM-1 module & it really sounds nice. Running
into a 760 you will be very happy with your sound I think.
You can check them out at http://www.speakeasyvintagemusic.com/
They have a money back guarantee, so if you don't like it you can
send it back too.
David
