    The Wurlitzer sound to me is a lullaby. Thousands of hours of listening to funky, rock, jazz during the 70's. Supertramp, Deodato, and so many others...

    I've been gigging with my 200 for over seventeen years, wouldn't trade it for anything, it's so expressive, useful across a wide variety of styles, and just flat out feels good to play! It satisfies like no digital keyboard can, no matter how realistic it is.

    Shout out to John Wyke-Smith, had his Wurlitzer electric piano since the 1970’s. I did so many gigs lugging the thing in and out of working men’s clubs with him. 👍♥️🙏🌈🇬🇧

    The sound of the Wurlitzer has a sort of FM synthesis character to it, kind of the effect you demonstrated made think that you probably replicate this sound well with a DX7. Also it sounds quite soft and warm but it can also sound with a lot of bite. Defenitly a very expressive instrument.

    • @gullyfoyle6354
      @gullyfoyle6354 6 лет назад +1

      Maybe in your circle, but is not very common, believe me, I hope it would be lot more... These artists became the new classical Beethovens, or Mozarts of our time, deserve respect and constant exposition on mass media. Not only on specialized stations, or channels. Just my humble opinion of course.

    • @MrSirGonza
      @MrSirGonza 6 лет назад +2

      I'm pretty sure if you are watching this channel you're already familiar with 70s, 80s and even 90s music. That's my case. For example, I would love it if people gave more credit to Kool & the Gang, but that just doesn't happen.

    • @gullyfoyle6354
      @gullyfoyle6354 6 лет назад

      Yep, not only I'm familiar with these decades of music, but I had been living and enjoying the 80s and the 90s!! Sometimes I just feel like an old fart remembering past days hehe...."let the good times roll" :)

  • @christhedemocrat
    @christhedemocrat 9 месяцев назад

    I bought one with 3 keys that sometimes sticks and one key that distorts in a very funky way. I want to tune all my keys this way. I paid a mere $50 for it!!!
    I’m super stoked!
    I love it dearly,
    I’ve always lusted for a Fender Rhodes, still do
    But the Wurlitzer is definitely my second favorite electric piano.
    I put it through a cheap Mark bass mini pedal to increase the volume as it come out very low without. From there I send it to my Alexis Quadraverb. And from there to a cheap mixer from the mixer into two 15 inch Fender amp {BXR 100 bass and and to the KXR 100 keyboard amp
    I got grooves for days

  • @craigbrowning9448
    @craigbrowning9448 5 лет назад

    Wurlitzer also built Accordions (also when Hammond bought Cable-Nelson, they sold their Everett Orgatron amplified Reed Organ rights to Wurlitzer), so that's where their Familiarities with Reeds came from.
    An American music educator named Benjamin Franklin Meisner also had a hand in the Wurlitzer Electric Piano development as they were originally used in College Piano Labs

  • @buddyclem7328

    Though I'm a guitar player, I love keyboards. and progressive rock keyboard players like Banks, Wakeman, Emerson and Lord. But man, the Wurlitzer electric piano and I do not mix. Such a dated and wimpy sound. I wonder what Alan Parsons' "Eye in the Sky" would sound like with a heavier keyboard tone. Never could get into Supertramp because of this instrument. Reminded me too much of Captain and Tennille.
