But let's face it: The newest B-3 anyone can get there hands on is
approaching 40 years old. Some of them are pushing 60. Parts are
getting harder to find, as are qualified techs to keep 'em running. Big
acts may be able to demand a B-3 in their riders, but there's still a
question of what shape the rental organ will show up in. Switching to
clones eliminates some of the risk: The best-kept 'Bs that I've ever
played are superior to any clone out there. The worst-kept ones,
though? I'm not so sure.

And I agree about mic'ing the Leslie: always a crap shoot on a stage.
