"Hammond clones and Leslie simulators never felt so real! The "Tall & Fat" pedal gives my Hammond sound the warmth I could not get in any other way. it is the perfect companion of my Neo Mini Vent Leslie simulator, making the sound real and crispy at the perfect point. Light and easy to use, the " Tall & Fat" brings the sound of your Hammond clone to the next level."
