Thanks for the video. Especially helpful was the trick of pulling one of the tonebars to use as a spacer to calibrate the depth of all the other tone bars as you put in the new screws. I made another discovery I'd like to share: on my Rhodes, some of the tines were off center, and I found the hex bolt that holds the tine onto the tone bar very difficult to loosen. So I was taking the tone bars completely off and putting them in a vice grip, and then loosening them with a socket wrench. Then I got an impact driver from a friend and it was like magic - didn't need to pull the tone bars at all, was able to loosen the bolts in place very easily with the impact driver!
Totally changed my 1980 MK 2 Stage Rhodes, brought the dynamics back.. amazing!

thanks for that tip Doug - I have had some trouble getting certain tines loose in the past...that's good to know.
Again a great vid and helpful information. Thanks for sharing
Done for bass and mid - sounds much more homogenic, definitely worth the effort.
Thanks guys y’all are amazing
Great video! Thanks
Great, thank you for such amazing detail!
Any idea what the ideal screw-driver head size should be for these screws?
hey, can you tell me what's the tune in the background? I really like that!
What's this song?? Geez it's nice as hell.
how long do the grommets usually last?
