Valid points, but: 1) I own the band's PA, which is a fully bi-amped deal with subwoofer cabs; 2) I already bring a full-size Leslie to 95% of the gigs; and 3) I have a pickup and trailer. It's not that big a change to my already long ordeal. Tony at BT is making sure the case I ordered has wheels on it, so it's really a matter of pulling it up the ramp into the trailer -- which is a better deal than the subs (wheel-less).

In my personal situation -- YMMV -- I play organ at least a little in all but two tunes on our list, and I play pseudo-dual-manual organ (using my synth keyboard) in half of them. The BX just seemed like a logical move for me.

Regards,
