I was wondering what the difference was between M-3 and B-3. I knew about the fewer keys and pedals, the no foldback thing and those things. Still I was wondering about the difference between the chorus sections of the organs and more. </p>
I was also wondering if the B-3 and A-100 were in fact the same beasts beside the case. Well, I found a great post from Leland Lay from 2004 that explained it so well. I hereby post a link to it to celebrate that well written post. Thanks Lee.</p>
The scanner vibrato/chorus on all three is virtually identical. The M-3 has two levels of vibrato, thetwo console models have three levels. The M-100's scanner has a much superior "celeste" function that gives a more theatrical - though not a Leslie - sound to the process. </P>
The Main tube amp in both spinets is the same, the M-100 has an additional and smaller tube amp.Any of them can be given a real two rotor leslie for the classic rock/jazz/blues sound. If one is after the additional key clicks andrelated effects, thereare ways to tweek any of them, including B-3s, to produce it,</P>

Would you mind elaborating on how or point me in the right direction with links??? I working on an M-3 and it could be useful...

Having never been dissattisfied with the effect of my 44W on any of the tonewheel spinets, or even onthe big heavy Concorde on my avatar, I have never had to do it, but there are several guys who have done extensive retubing, and even "re-capacitorizing"thatI hope will chime in here to help. what exactly do you have in mind to do?[:^)]
I wanted to have more information on the key clicking part of your last post. I've read that Hammond intentionally design the tube to have a 6kHz roll off so that key click would be reduced. ( http://www.dairiki.org/HammondWiki/SpinetLimitations )
