I liked the Native B4 in the past, used it once in a 'serious' situation. These days there are so many more available, some even free. Oh man, be careful what you wish for haha. On the Keyboard Corner there are huge threads talking about exactly that. There are guys there who are complete experts in everything Hammond. Lately the "best" might be the one from Acoustic Samples called the B5. Here's a vid just posted a few days ago by KC forum member JoJoB3, one of many killer players who knows B3's better than I do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=41&v=i6OAlKfDYTQ A bit of background. This rig he's playing is using an old Hammond XK3 for the top controller, another midi controller he took apart for the lower manual and put into a case he built himself plus he's using midi bass pedals. Everything you hear is from the B5 including the Leslie sim, the distortions, all of it. Does he sound like a Hammond geek? Oh yeah he is. And he's not the only one on that forum. The B5 is about the closest I've heard lately. For me I have a Hammond SK1 which sounds pretty good by itself but when I really want authenticity, I'll use the Neo Ventilator Leslie sim pedal. In order to do that the SK1 has a Bypass button that turns off it's Leslie sim and the Vent takes over. It really makes a big difference. Talking about Leslie sims is yet another huge discussion on the KC. If you really want to check out Hammond clones and Leslie sims check out the Keyboard Corner forum.

The guitarist and I were into weight lifting and we picked up a WW2 surplus ammo box and put about 200 pounds of weights in it. We would carry that into the hotel room and do some lifting there. He and I could squat down and pick up my full B3 console by the legs down where the crossbars are which allowed us to carry it high enough to clear our knees and just walk it from the van into the venue. Published figures put the weight at 385 pounds. A few years later I had it chopped by a guy in Chicago and that cut the size way down and the weight by 120 pounds or so. It had handles on the sides making it way easier for us to carry plus it could fit on a simple set of wheels I made from 3/4" ply and hardware store wheels. Fast forward to about 15 years ago, I sold it to a guy who came over to pick it up with a 4X4 Suburban. I hadn't touched it in maybe 6-7 years. I had been going to the gym regularly and was in good shape for a 58 year old guy. It was all I could do to handle one end of that thing and get it up and over the lip of his truck. Going to the gym does NOT turn back the clock to when you were 25. My Hammond SK1 weighs 12 pounds and no it doesn't sound like the real thing (nothing is close unless it's going through a real Leslie) but trust me at 12 pounds it's plenty good enough!

Still have a hand free for an acoustic guitar case or my sleeping gear LoL. I am not jealous. Latest keyboard i ever used for gigs was a 80-bass britches piano, plm 6 kilos ...
