Tony,

thanks, that seems to make good sense, but i'm real new to the
Leslie, only had it a couple of days and i've never owned one before
(borrowed them during recording etc on odd occasions).
I'll have a proper look at the amp tonight, see if i can figure out
where the volume control is! Thus far i've just plugged it in and
played, but to get a real nice growl, i've had to crank up the
Speakeasy, which the lady of the house seems to find a tad
disagreeable for some reason?
