Wow.  10 years ago I promised myself that the next keyboards I'd buy
would be a real acoustic piano and a real Hammond organ.  I lied.

Your post struck a chord (har, har) with me.  I've collected some of the
same organs as you on the way to that elusive goal.  Perhaps we should
name a specific sub form of Hammond Acquisition Syndrome for those who
would be acquiring more if the opportunities were present.
Any suggestions?

Got me a Hammond jones.

P.S.  If it were me, I'd probably jump on that B2/JR20.  BUT! I'm kinda
wacky, and I like tinkering, and I haven't seen it. I know that tone
generators have been brought back from the near dead. You can always add
percussion, and it's blonde.  Price seems a bit high for me if it's that
bad.  What else is wrong with it?  Where is it located? (in a church
steeple? Ground level?)  Thanks a lot!  Now I'm the rambling idiot!
Take a whole bunch of deep breaths and make a semi rational decision.

Ugh!
