I've heard B3's that in my opinion don't sound as good as my XB-2/145, but
that's hardly the point - I don't play a B3 clone, I play an XB-2, which
has its own sound and idiosyncrasies.

Of course, I'm not disputing that a prime B3 is one of the finest
instruments on the planet...

BTW Last time I listened to some sh*t, it was silent. Maybe the XB-2 you
heard wasn't plugged in?   ;-)
