Can't really comment much about the pianos aside from personal anecdotes. The baby picture of me playing a keyboard in my journal thread is a customized Fender Rhodes, just the bass end of the piano. Apparently Ray Manzarek from The Doors had a similar setup. I thought it was awesome.

Also Hammond organs are heavy as hell, so just like the Leslie, not exactly something you want to have to move around a lot.
ok thx for the input

i just wanted a "classic" set-up those old fogeys used

looking into a Mini-Moog and a Taurus as well

also probably a Synclavier
