[HAM] 21H Leslie

[John Brevik]

Although I love the 21H, I agree that $800 is a lot to pay for one.  
It's my fave one-speed Leslie, except possibly the "phone booth" 30  
and 31 models, but a 45 or 44 might be cheaper. If you're doing a  
rock, blues, or gospel thing, I think you'd miss the chorale and  
should look for a 760.

The M3 is a good organ, but I would think that for $1500 you could do  
an M3/122 or 147 just about anywhere in the country. Out here on the  
west coast, you could probably get a C2/122 for pretty close to that  
if you watch the bargains.

Good luck!
