I was a keyboard tech for 36 years and rebuilt many Rhodes pianos. On one of my own Rhodes I installed a built-in stereo chorus. I am very impressed by all the electronics you managed to find room for inside the unit.
Can this Rhodes be ordered with warmer sounding tines?
This is so great, they really nailed The Sound !!!
I want this Rhodes Hoodie : is the only thing I can afford – haha !!!
I’m an American and I don’t think Americans either do this or even know how to do this any more (though I could be wrong).
Red/Black really suites your "Dr Mix" brand😊
Just fabulous! I didn’t realise the Rhodes was actually a hybrid acoustic/electronic instrument. Just amazing!!!!!!
Listening to this while studying for law school finals.
I can relate to your excitement in this video. It's like being a kid in a toy store! I love trains and I remember visiting a railroad with old steam Locomotives and I was fuming with excitement like you were in this video.
Btw these instruments sound absolutely beautiful. Perfect for study music instrumentals.
Rhodes or Wurlitzer?
After hearing that Mk 8 . . NO CONTEST!!
Rhodes wins. . By a country mile!
What a classic (but also 'modern') sound . . Makes me smile just hearing it!
HOT PINK
Honestly if you compare this to audio manufacturers the price is a steal
Good job take back manufacturing from the see see pee
Banana Yellow 😮👍🙏🇬🇧♥️
Beautiful 🙂 Got the loaded one with an extra elegant pink lid. Love it.
Incredible sound
I bought m'y first Rhodes in 1986, i have 5 Rhodes today.
Thé MK8 gives Electronic ans modulations liké synthétiseur but i don't think it s better for what we're waiting for a Rhodes sound..anyway, it's a magical piano
Is there no built in Vibrato?
👍🎼🎹💖
Really great ❤❤
RED!!!
I worked at C.B.S./Fender Musical Instruments 1971 -77 in Fullerton Calif in the "Keyboards" Dept. I assembled thousands of the Rhodes including two for Apple Records and John Lennon. Many other famous groups/songs. I am very proud of my contribution to great music. My hands touched each piano before anyone else and I know every part can put one together from just the parts.
That's great that it's made by locals in Leeds. Lovely instruments.
I have owned three Rhodes piano's. They are great!
This new one is super but very exspensive. Sorry😮
Pretty sure you meant to say a Rhodes trip… not a road trip.
All hail the analog path! May many walk upon it.
When they changed the front panel I immediately had a lot more love for the black and walnut combo.
Yup, I bought one! And it is very nice!!!
YOU GUYS MADE ME WANT ONE!!!!!!!
Oh, by the way, I'd go for transparent hood, black anodised front, walnut case
I respecto the owner and I am glad it's him. He really cares. Now if they could bring the price down somehow on these instruments or make one with less bells and whistles that would be great. To be honest it would be really cool if they got into the midi controller game as well.
Oh dang Claudio has some drum chops
Nostalgia is a best , damn expensive product😂
