Where is "here" and how does it look cosmetically?

Lower manual is 4 octave, upper is standard spinet length.

We have a B-200 here that's been gigged to death. It's got plenty of
low end oopmh and you can link the pedal bass to the lower two
octaves for even more punch.

Excellent for messing with the bass player or playing a funk gig
without one. But not so hot for jazz.

11-pin.
