I am testing one now,as for pro's, it duplicates an organ
very well, as for cons it will take some practice with hand and bar technique. Remember, organs dont have pedals, knee levers and a sliding bar.

I tried one out, and felt that only one of its different modes worked well on the steel, but that one worked very well.

I have no use for an organ sound, but if I did, I'd get one of these units.

I tried one and was very impressed, although I realized what I really wanted was a Leslie simulator for the steel rather than an organ sample triggered by the steel.

I tried one thru Jim Palenscars rig last week.
It sounded great through his Stereo Steel rig.
I see they have them at Guitar Center so I may get one for a 30 day trial, just for the fun of it.
I had trouble thinking of songs to use it for on a gig, but there are some songs listed in the description below that jog my memory.
I was playing the intro/lick to "Give Me Some Lovin" and it sounded good.
Since then I was thinking of songs like Good Lovin', Time of the Season (Zombies), Magic Carpet Ride, etc... not that I do any of those tunes on gigs, but maybe fun to play along with at home.
Maybe just a tiny lag from the time the note is picked to the beginning for the Organ sound (did anyone else notice this?).
It really sustains well... the notes continued for a long time after the string was picked.

From the web:
Transforms the tone of a guitar and/or keyboard into that of a convincing full-body electric organ.
With nine presets that were finely tuned to emulate the most legendary organs from the ‘60s and beyond, the B9 Organ Machine will transform your guitar or keyboard. Control the instrument’s signature percussive click and sweet modulation. Blend your dry signal to create lush layers. Enough tonewheel and combo organ inspiration to light your fire and cook up some green onions.

Preset Descriptions
Fat & Full: This sound adds an extra octave below and above to make your guitar sound twice as big. Fills out any band in an instant. MOD Type: Chorus.
Jazz: This preset has the cool, smooth jazz tone reminiscent of the late great organist Jimmy Smith. MOD Type: Chorus.
Gospel: This preset has the upper octave drawbars added to capture that great soulful organ tone. MOD Type: Chorus.
Classic Rock: This preset captures the classic rock sound of songs like Procal Harum’s “Whiter Shade of Pale.” Add a touch of distortion for a classic dirty organ. MOD Type: Chorus.
Bottom End: This preset has the lower draw bar sound. Perfect for adding bottom to your guitar or playing B3 bass sounds. With the CLICK control up you can lay down a bass line like the one on Sugarloaf’s “Green Eyed Lady.” MOD Type: Chorus.
Octaves: This preset uses the fundamental tone plus one octave above. This sound is great for songs like Led Zeppelin’s “Your Time is Going to Come.” MOD Type: Chorus. CLICK control adds not only key click, but higher harmonics.
Cathedral: Turn up the reverb and you are at the seat of a giant cathedral organ! Psychedelic rock tones easily pour out. MOD Type: Tremolo. CLICK adjusts the tremolo depth.
Continental: This is the classic combo organ sound similar to classic songs “96 Tears,” “Woolly Bully” and “House of the Rising Sun.” MOD Type: Vibrato. CLICK controls vibrato depth.
Bell Organ: If you crossed an electric piano with an organ this is it. MOD Type: Tremolo. CLICK adjusts the amount of bell or chime added to the sound.
