Depends on what you want, of course: exactly Hammond or just some keys that play well.
Exactly Hammond? I've no clue. Playable keys? About any old midi synth that you like might work nicely on the cheap or a midi controller for, mysteriously, more money.
Though not as cool looking as Jeroen's, my FrankenClone has 2 keybeds: an Oberheim Xk upper and a Roland MKS lower (76note). The lower is semi-slow but that's fine for left hand and all the piano. The upper (Xk) is all right by me, but has divingboard keys that many don't prefer. Ok, come to think about it, I'm getting tired of them too and will soon replace them -- but I'm always working on it anyway, so it's just more fun :-)

Subject: [CWSG] best inexpensive organ-style keybed?

Jeroen's killer Franken-B3 got me thinking about my next project--
using an inexpensive MIDI board purely as a slave to rout B3 sounds
through from my fully-weighted board. What board has a good to great
organ-style keybed that I could pick up reasonably on eBay?

Regards,

Jay
