   The sound, man!  The sound...  ;-)

   I've heard a Korg, and Roland that each had a pretty good B-3 sound.
 FWIW, Hammond themselves make a portable synth model called the X-B3.
 They have one of the best of synthesized B-3 sounds I've heard.  The
 young keyboard whiz Joey DeFrancesco played one for some years, and
 maybe still does.
