Dude, I've been wanting one of these for a few years now.
Jazz organ is the shit.
Do you like John Medeski's work? Jimmy Smith?

Locus said: thats cool although its basically just a keyboard with another keyboard underneath. its basically just keyboard. so its not like its that different. but its cool, yea, and you would have to play differently using such an instrument like that.
There's foot pedals too. Way different than a keyboard. I mean, yes, it is, by definition, a keyboard, but it's much different than some Casio.
JRayV: The videos I posted are all of Jimmy Smith. MM+W is cool, I like it, but there is other stuff I like much more (Smith for example.)

To expand...
A B-3 is a specific model of organ, like a stratocaster is to a guitar. There are specific techniques that pertain to organ-playing, and the B-3 has a unique set of sounds in particular.
A keyboard like you are talking about is sort of a sampling device. That'd be like saying you can play the piano just because you can play the keyboard. Subtle, yet big differences.

My buddys Grandma has a B3. She can play the hell out of it too. We had the best granny jam session at their lake house. God, I need to get back there.
