Hi Malc,

I think that in your last comment you really scored..

If organ sounds + Tremolo (poor Lesley effect) is what you're
looking for, then you should really try the good-old Yamaha H range
(HE-8,HS,HX).
The Organ/Combination/Flutes sounds are pretty much the same in both
H ans EL series, and you can save a few dollars in the process
without compromising on quality/variety.

I recommend you give it a try and rather sure you won't be
disappointed..

Another thing,
If the good-old Hammond B-3 has an effect on you and you can't
afford it , and that's the main reason for you to try compromising
on the EL-15/40/60 or whatever, might I suggest you try other
companies' products as well, as organ sounds are not the "strong
side" of the Yamaha electones, even though they are quite good..
