Found the email.  At some time Jimmy had the Bill Beer chop rebuilt by Chuck
Webb according to Bill Brown in answer to my questions about the chop
appearing on his website.  The organ is now owned by Joey DeFrancesco.  Some
mods are obvious.  The black tolex removed and the case stained.  Different
handles, and the aluminum tray below the lower manual removed, and controls
put elsewhere.  A newer B3 guts were installed with a Trek-II preamp and
controls - replacing Bill Beer's aging equipment.
