Subject:Re: How do solid state leslies sound? - additional Info

I had a 925 but was using it with a Hammond Porta-B
(not a clone) which had internal tube amplifier. It
was very LOUD with good distortion but not the same as
a wood Leslie which I upgraded from. When I was
playing it I would always get the comments that it
projected extremely well, heard crystal clear at the
back of the room, hall, etc. No problems in competeing
with the guitar players.
