I'm excited for this series. Been needing to go through mine and re-voice/tune it properly, so it will be nice to get a rundown straight from the horses mouth. Cheers Dan
I was a keyboard tech for 38 years. People just have no conception how much labor is involved in restoring a Rhodes. As well as just doing regular maintenance to keep them playing well. People need to know they will need a bottomless pit of money to keep them in good shape, especially if they will play it every day.
@@Jason.Brayshaw I retired a couple years ago to a small town near the NC mountains far from any decent music store so I have not seen the new Rhodes. I do think that the Vintage Vib company has made some excellent improvements in the action from the videos I have seen. But their instrument sounds like a cross between a Rhodes and a Wurlitzer. To be honest, my favorite Rhodes is the Famous E Electric Piano which is a VST sampled Rhodes. And I played every sampled Rhodes in all the keyboards and digital pianos ever made.

Have they improved do you think? Like the Mk8 or same high maintenance?
