Ah yes, taming gear lust is very easy when you have just obtained a new beautiful instrument! J
 
But you do speak the truth there Mike;  I think we all spent a lot of time hunting and gathering that would be better spent just practicing and playing.  The audience has no clue, and has no desire to know, what we use to make noise with, only that we make a noise that makes them feel good.  The quicker we can reconcile that with gear that makes us feel good, the sooner we can invest all that energy into our musicality.
 
Enjoy the new rig Mike!  We are very happy for you cuz we know you’ll make some beautiful music with it.

I try hard not to clone hop The Leslie clones are getting better but at times I wish i could have kept my other pro3t and lowpro . I gave up the Korg CX3 because of the shrillness at the top end ( wasted money imo)went back to the V5. Then i bought a rdbox which was good but too heavy and will not fit in my present car. I got mad because back then Manufacturers weren't making controllers with organ keybeds so I built my own controller using the fatar organ waterfall keybeds. I blessed a near by church with the Roadbox and pull out my motion sound unit bought the Key5 and I'm staying with what I have now . Now I determine that if i can't make music with what i have now then i should give it up. MikeW.
