A bit of narrative would help to know what it is you are doing along the way. Love the video cam. Thank you.

Its such a blessing living in a time where people can, and do, share their knowledge. I found a Rhodes at a yard sale for 150$. It works, but it needs work. I cant imagine stumbling blindly through something like this. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the world.

[@erikaccou7104]

I learned a lot from you VVguys. Thanks Chris and co for sharing your knowledge. You could have kept it for yourselves...

Me not being a musician am surprised that these are almost all made from wood. Impressive! Looks like a lot of parts and labor. Must cost a bunch to get one restored.

Love watching the masters at work!

Thanks for taking us behind the scenes!

Love the video, but it would be great if you gave commentary of how and why you are doing each step.. and of course.. keeping the great music playing in the background. :)

I have a Mark ll that I bought brand new,it’s needing a little love so I bought the rebuild kit from Vintage Vibe, can’t wait to get started. Great video and great soundtrack. Thank you from San Luis Obispo California.

Hi chaps, thanks for all the information you give out so generously. Quick question - I have replaced my dampers but they came with a lot of glue initially. Do you guys reglue the bridal strap to the damper tongue?

Excellent video! However I have a question. What can I do if the bolts on some of the forks are stuck due to oxide, rust or grease? I picked up my piano at an antique store. Thanks in advance!

[@barrymcdonald7521]

Wondering about order of procedure here. The key levelling/key dip being done at the end. I read on the VV website how paramount it is that this be done first as all subsequent adjustment will be directly related it this starting point (positioning of miracle mod etc). Just curious as to what I'm missing here and very very thankful of all the knowledge you guys so freely share.

[@robertonoriega7660]

Tengo un piano fender quiero darle mantenimiento y me gustaria saber en donde puedo ubicarlos

[@mvexel]

How do you tell if the damper arms need replacing? I'm inclined to just replace the felt tips, but if it makes sense to replace the arms also I would consider it!
