[HAM] Forgive me for asking this...

I just got it, so I haven't recorded with it, just played a couple of  
gigs with it.

I know I can't deal with C3 chorus with chorale on a real Hammond  
(for my own playing), so I opt for C1 or C2 when I use it in this way  
or just turn off the vibrato/chorus altogether.

Not saying it's a "bad sound", I just don't care for it personally  
when I play. "Colors" the sound too much, IMO.
