A new Hammond clone... (not red)

Just for information, unfortunately only in German, but you can watch and listen to the videos...

Sounds great (HX3 engine inside) and the price is fair.
This will be a hard competitor for the C2/C2D!

At that price I would prefer a Crumar Mojo, cheaper and the VB3 II sounds much better than the HX3

Yeah, judging from few youtube videos, this new hammond clone sounds very good. I think the distortion effect sounds better, and the percussion effect sounded fuller vs C2D. But it's hard to get a proper impression from a few video clips. It would be great to hear some first hand experiences with this clone, and how it compares to the C2D.

Just in order to give you a feedback to my starting post: I've bought the X3-2 and sold my C2 in the meantime.
The C2 (v2.00) is a fantastic instrument and (listened to it alone) it sounds great, but the X3 sounds even more authentic, warm-organic and "real", especially the percussion is a dream, and the whole instrument is built like a tank.
As I don't need two organs, I kept the better one of two really good organs.

Btw: there's a new webpage: http://uhl-instruments.com/en/

I have an Electro 4D and an HX3 Epander Module (same sound engine UHL uses). Although I like the Electro 4D Hammond clone and certainly understand why it's so popular, the HX3 sounds noticeably more authentic.
