I don't know anything at all about the new model you mentioned, but
if it's a modern(ish ) Hammond with midi and a built in sim, I
wouldn't even think about replacing the A100 unless the old organ is
shot. A friend of mine parted with his A100 in 1976 for an all bells
and whistles Elka. The Elka cost him a few thousands plus the part
exchange. The Elka? today you couldn't give it away.
If it were me, I'd find a nice synth/keyboard to place on top of the
organ, and lavish loads of TLC on both organ and Leslie.
Just my penny's worth.
Regards, Thomas.
