Short clips from a major restoration project we had in the shop. We restored all 3 of Donald Fagen's Fender Rhodes 88 Suitcases. Grace, Lucy and Selma www.vintagevibe.com
Not ENTIRELY sure, but it's quite possible that because Donald mostly plays in the mid-register while he's singing/performing, that those keys need the most attention and attack. Allowing that faster response.
A real work of craft and artistry....a thorough understanding of the mechanics of the instrument and how to make it sound and feel beautiful. Wow.
Awesome video. Wow!
I once did a little work on "Selma", this is Don's "Lucy".
Lucy, Selma, Grace, how many damn Rhodes does he have
Hey guys. I noticed the date stamp in the corner 4876. So would that be the 48th week of 1976?
its a pity the sound quality is so bad, of the sound, becase that looks like a really nice piano
Yeah! What song was that at the beginning?
I would totally be listening to Citizen Steely Dan while repairing this... how insulting lol
Cubilas Right. But, DF would be listening to SW...
Back check only in the mid? Why?
