The 15" speaker may be the same as that used in the Leslie's, but I've not verified the part number. The driver in mine is the same as what was being used at the time mine was made.

> Thanks--I was originally just trying to make the point that a Leslie sim sounds much better through cabs that are set up like a real Leslie IE: a 15 and a midrange horn crossed over at 800HZ--I personally use a real Leslie. (I have 2-one bi-amped using a Tubeworks Mossvalve 80/80 and the other passive, powered by a QSC amp.)
