If you run them through a guitar amp like most people originally did way
back when it will sound a lot better. Anybody who has ever owned or toured
with a Rhodes or a Clavinet knows that there's a reason that those
instuments slowly disappeared - the tuning. Furthermore most of them were
modified so a real Rhodes sound to one person is a horrible one for another
which makes comparing sounds hard. I also have Magnetica, EVP88 and the real
deal and to tell you the truth I don't even have the real thing in my studio
anymore because I never used it.
I don't have a B3 or a Leslie but a lot of the organ sound comes from the
volume pedal and register skills that good organ players have and not so
much the actual sound so again it's not possible just to press the keyboard
and then judge the sound.
I completely agree that the keyboard plays a massive part in the performance
like the Hammonds with their very light keyboard, almost like a toy
keyboard.
