I Bought The RAREST Keyboard In The World...
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2021
- In this video I do as genuine unboxing of an extraordinary piece of keyboard history without knowing what it really is. Will this be my rock bottom or have I become the custodian of something my children will pass down to their children? Are you as foolhardy as I with your purchases, a category one consumer or are you a spec hound category two?
Join me back here on the 12th of October 17.00 GMT for the launch of pianobook v3.0 check back after then for a link to the *FREE* "Pitched Electric Celeste"
Remember if you want to be part of the fun and games at the end of this month SUBSCRIBE!!!

The sheer joy on your face, “it’s a fucking celeste!”, brought tears to my eyes. I hope you have many happy years with your new investment.
Ha ha ha!
Same here, it was such a happy reveal.... much needed after a couple of heavy days this week
im sad cuz ive been hunting for a non-galactic priced regular celeste for ages and this video will now put it even further out of reach ahahah. anyone else surprised to see no sustain? i always thought this was a fundamental part of the celeste..?
It was genuinely the look all parents hope to see on their kids faces on Christmas lol. Awesome!
@@TheCrowHillCo or new partner...
I was legitimately nervous for you before you pressed the keys. Sounds incredible and can’t wait for the sample!
“Sounds incredible”, I was thinking it sounds shitty. Sounds like a cheap Kids xylophone from China, which is not a good place to build sounds from. But I imagine if someone is spending around £20k on a piece of rare vintage crap then people are going to romanticise. But let’s be honest, ears are still a thing - that is a very rare vintage piece of shite.
@@watercolourmark On its own, I agree - it's not the greatest sounding thing in the world. But with all those effects I think it sounds pretty neat.
@@PonzWasTaken - I agree. But we could day the same about any sine sound.
@@watercolourmark Just realized you're just trolling after listening to the music on your page.
@@shouldabeengone - what is your point?
"It's a fucking celeste" and the sheer joy on your face is probably the most emotional moment I've seen in one of your videos. And I've seen them all.
sounds beautiful Christian - "it's a fucking celeste!" put a big smile on my face - really happy for you that you got what you actually wanted!!!
yeah i really laughed at that, glad it was eh.
The moment you heard it, your irrepressible expression... priceless.
That was when I thought: Pianobook, Pianobook, Pianobook!
A million and one thanks in advance. I'll be there on the 12th.
To be really honest, I have never been a fan of the Rhodes but i must say this Celeste sounds absolutely gorgeous!
My spending habits on gear is simple, when i've got dosh, I buy gear. Thats why i've never got dosh! lol
Not a fan of the Rhodes? Well I disagree however I respect your opinion as a member of the deaf community.
Beautiful instrument! Hard to understand why Fender only made ten of them, after taking the time and effort to develop it ... and it having such a wondrous tone.
The moment you lifted the lid, Christian! And then the moment you realized it's a gem! Absolutely amazing! And thank you, as always for sharing this with all of us. Can't wait to play with it! Have fun :D
What a beautiful sound! That nervousness before playing it, followed by your jubilation and glee is wonderful. Thanks for sharing Christian!
It was wonderful to see that kind of joy :D
Really chuffed for you.
The boyish delight when you played it, was so lovely. You deserve it.
Such an inspiring sound.
REALLY looking forward to seeing this on Pianobook! Sounds lovely, (love the sound with distortion!!!) Thanks for sharing this moment!
Okay... when it comes to sample libraries, I am MOST DEFINITELY a Type 1 consumer... especially with Spitfire and another unnamed company! Even though I've not had much time to dig into the libraries I've purchased, I still get more!!
Seeing the look on your face when you realized that you hadn't been scammed was priceless!!!
I had to stop the video and crack up after your motorcycle imitation!! That was priceless!! Loved it!!! Along with the entire video!!
What a beautiful instrument! I'd have to describe myself as a type two since the world shut down, although I did pick up Symphonic Organ recently. I've had my eye on it since seeing "The House With the Clocks in the Wall" with my kids. ...cheers
Christian, that was absolutely genius. Pitching it down that is. I’m imagining it produces a lot of harmonics post 20k. Your reaction was priceless too. Best video you’ve done in a while. I’m so excited to get the samples from piano book!
What a great video-I really felt your excitement there. Also it sounds so great!
5:21 - best reaction EVER! Not sure, but I got sooo excited when it turned out to be a Celeste. Absolute RUclips gold, Christian! 👍👍👍👍
That sounds absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations to you for getting this rare and beautiful instrument!
Truly an extraordinary instrument. It was a total blast watching you discover its true nature. Many of us have that "bad room" where our unfortunate equipment decisions go to die. I certainly do. However I also have a well equiped toy room and can report that for you, me and many of our friends a bad room is actually required for to have a super happy fun room.
Congrats on 100K!!! And that thing is beautiful... LOVE the colour... and the sound!
looking really forward for the sample pack! many thanks for the video and of course also the work you put in for the sample pack!
Your excitement made me smile with you when you started playing. Wow, what a beautiful sound. I've just spent over an hour reading about this.
05:21 Me when my sister says that the Harry Potter theme was played on a piano
When you dropped it a couple of octaves!! Amazing!! Just discovered this channel and I love it. Personally, I'm a type 1 consumer! It is a good job I don't have much in the way of disposable income, otherwise every time a new edition of Sound On Sound comes out I'd be buying every trinket that catches my eye!
Very cool to see one of these played! I used to work for the number one Rhodes tech in Hollywood during Covid. I got to see tons of Rhodes and Wurlitzers and Hammonds restored to mint and I will never forget the amazing time I had there. I had read and heard about this but never got to actually see or hear one!
That distortion is fantastic, can't wait to hear it amped. Don't get me started on the orange and black ! F**kin gorgeous.
Congratulations! It sounds absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to that sample pack too.
Oh man! I’m so happy for you, your face on hitting those first notes where magic! Absolutely brilliant 🤩 well done you
It's beautiful. I hope it's worth breaking the bank on the current project. Thanks for sharing. You're going to put it on piano book! There's a place for you in heaven.
Absolutely beautiful! The look of excitement on your face was fantastic:) enjoy!
lol love the video and LOVE Christian's face when he imitated a Motorcycle SFX LOL!!!!!!!!
New to the channel. Thought this was amazing! So glad it was what you hoped for. This video comes out on the day I'm unboxing a Lumatone. Awesome!
Wow that octave down sound at 8:12 IS awesome, and YES, I want the sampleset of that sound!
Sounds amazing through my studio speakers! Can't wait for the sampled version!
loving these VLOGs. I got so excited when you pressed that first few keys.
Can't wait to see what you've got in store for us Christian! Also, love the antique desk you've got in your studio. The one with the titanic synth on it. My Mum has one very similar. I have been told it's at least 200 years old.
Wow! So cool! The processing that you did is beautiful. Congrats on your purchase :-)
I buy a new virtual instrument late night when my wife has been acting very unfairly towards me..
Man, as soon as you hit those keys for the first time I yelled along with you, “It’s a CELESTE”! Great sound and that red shell is dynamite
That moment before you touched the keys was full of suspense! :D Sounds gorgeous and I love the pitched down vibe you got going. Subbed :)
Dude, that sounds amazing! I want all the samples of this thing, since I'll never be able to play a real one
Sounds gorgeous. I laughed out loud at some of your tiny purchases. I was prepared for it to be the most expensive turkey you'd ever bought, but I'm glad it wasn't! Look forward to using the sampled version at some point - I would definitely use it.
I'm a massive Fender Rhodes fan... I can't believe you snagged one of these! Super cool find!
This is the first of your videos that I have watched. Well done, Mate!
Oh so that's where your old trumpet fiddle went, to the Dark Cave of a Thousand Discarded Various Electronic Items and Such - I remember seeing it in an old cribs video and had always wondered! Also that Fender electric celeste has an absolutely fantastic timbre! Reminds me a little of the custom celeste Randy Kerber designed for the Harry Potter scores.
Look at that big ship in the water - I did say ship!
Beautiful, and well done! I recently bought a local Rhodes Electronic Piano and had similar nervousness hearing it for the first time, being as there were no real demos. Luckily, it sounds great, and turns out its NOT an ARP 4 voice after all!
I just hope you don't thank your accountant with a good bottle...he's already drinking because of you
Somehow your videos are always so awesome and insightful, no matter the subject ! Thanks you for sharing !
Sounds lovely. Looking forward to playing one tomorrow with the original speaker cabinet!!!
wow thats such a beautiful sound!! i dont think ive been more excited for a pianobook release
Christian... are you absolutely bonkers? £16K really? And then I heard it, oh! Then at 8:11.... oh!... now I understand... I love being type 1. Grand purchase my dear fellow.
Ha, when you hit that first chord, my immediate thought was, "You NEED to sample that!!!". Beautiful sounding and very Rhodes-like.
Oh,and I'm a serious type 2 buyer. I research the bloody heck out of every purchase and am always available for hire.😁
Priceless Reaction!! Love those Moments! 😊💚
Manhattans and ebay were a deadly combo in the mid aughts. That said I do love my '64 AC30.
So glad it turned out to be what you had hoped! Restores one's faith in... etc.
Now if anyone needs a theme song for a new early 1980s sitcom, you're all set.
5:20 as music lovers, we all understand the big smile he gets here. I love it (:
Really enjoying your content (lovely sounding celeste BTW) especially as you are a little more 'expressive' here than on the spitfire films!
I’m subscribing because I can relate too well with the first half of this video. I’m glad it worked out well for you. I’m a type 2 consumer now. :/
Thank you for your help in identifying my disease. I have come to recognize it over the years. Even when anticipated that warm endorphin rush from buying new gear is irresistible. It hits the low point for me when I re-buy something I have already owned and sold before. That has happened a bunch of times.
Sounds like the instrument that opens Dancing in the Moonlight. You just about play the lick at one point.
Granted that 90% of us do some impulse purchasing, buying RME interfaces that you *never* use puts you in a different category, Christian! 8-) Congrats on that celeste. It sounds lovely, and I'm looking forward to hearing some of it in Pianobook or other future sample libraries. -Tom
That sheer joy when you realised what instrument it was literally brought an equal (perhaps a greater) amount of joy to me as well! haha...! 😀
It's absolutely gorgeous to hear...
oh, and I think I am a type 2 consumer... I do take my own sweet time to decide on things. It's both, a boon and a bane.
Just subbed, almost at 100k mate - we need that sample !
Can’t wait for the piano book and the Celest! I’m a type one, so so bad, but sometimes! Yes sometimes it’s magic !
It sounds magnificent exactly how it is, effects just cover up the delicacy !
Most suspense I e had watching a keyboard video is ages, congratulations 🍾 🙌
Beautiful sound, great purchase !👌
This thing sounds awesome, Christian. What a rare find...so cool. One day people will approach Roland Juno Ones and Korg Tritons the same way.
That actually sounds quite lovely, and different than a normal Rhodes! I'd love to to see under the cover to know if anything is mechanically different. Now try to find an RSF Polykobol II and whatever sanity you have left will leave you.
Wow...beautiful sound...glad it worked out. I have found out recently that buying music equipment can be very addictive....I try to do as much research as possible on pieces before buying, so havent had any buyers remorse on any big ticket items......so far...LOL
"Trumpet-fiddle"....I need to know more!!
“It’s a fucking Celeste!!” That proper creased me up! The involuntary glee explosion 😂😂😂 sounds amazing
Some instruments (guitars mostly) have "spoken" to me and told me "I have a song hidden inside for you!" Other times just the sheer beauty of a guitar can cause me to open my pockets and invite it into my collection,... which by most standards isn't all that much,... just reached 50 guitars and 10 assorted amps (amps tend to be a smaller collection),... but, I in fact do play them all, and most have been recorded as well.
Oh, that thing sounds stunning! I hope the unaltered instrument as well as the down-pitched version will be on Pianobook, please!
Awesome! ^^ I'm definitely category 2, I'm overthinking every possible up- and downside on every purchase.
Common man: "OMG I won the lottery!"
Christian: "it's a fuck*ng celeste!"
That is a beautiful sound.... Congrats!
That sine into distortion... Makes me want to try my Casiotone 1000P and do the same thing...
To answer your question - my main remorse is a small, but cool synth that lacked connectivity so I can't use it easily in any songs. It probably set me back only $150 though, so I'm OK. It's just fun for noodling nothing more...
I have a Kickstarter that hasn't delivered now after 4 years, that is a disappointment, but I think the guy is still actively working on it.
I'm a bit analytical, but I do get convinced to buy certain pieces of gear after hearing a good demo (or two) in context and just a small amount of research. Thanks to that I added two other pieces of 1979 gear to my Moog Liberation....
Casio mt-70 for a poorer man such as I.
the motorcycle thing at 4:21 had me in tears LOL
Hello, my name is Jon and I'm a Reverbaholic.
(Hi Jon)
Okay, I have been following you for about a year now because you have some great videos that I have learned from.
But this!
This has got to be your best video ever!
The look on your face when you press those keys and learn it's actually a celeste is priceless.
So we need to form a Reverb type 1 buyer recovery group.
Hello, my name is John and I'm a Reverbaholic.
Ah, so that's what they used on "Dancing in the Moonlight" by King Harvest. And sounds great!
Wow ! That octave sampled version is stunning !
Awesome video from every angle imaginable.
I'm so happy for you Christian! Beautiful instrument!
Loved it - thanks!
Sounds lovely. The sound reminds me of some of the little EP/Organ-y flourishes on Bob James’ 1974 track Nautilus
Just thought you'd like to know; "IT'S A FUCKING CELESTE!" is now a favourite family catchphrase.
This VIDEO should be VIRAL!!! Epic Content Christian!! I went to Frost for Media Scoring this semester because of your channel!
Congratulations, have fun with the Celeste. Thanks for the sampled version though.
For the type of consumer, I think most of the people are type one, but many times our urge is rein by limiters of every day life challenges and priorities.
Amazing thanks for sharing 👏🏾👍🏾🙏🏾
I want an electric celeste now. I think this would be a wonderful to have in a kids bedroom for playing to them when they are little, and then letting them begin to explore music with it as they get less little. What a pretty sound.
Well if this channel has one of the ten or so that exist, good luck paying a fortune. This isn't something that belongs around children, as much as I believe children should be encouraged to discover and learn. They're just going to spill their juice on it and ruin a nearly priceless piece of music.
This celesta makes a gorgious sound! Also that distortion. Lovely
It sounds lovely. It's in Peter Forrest's A-Z of Analogue Synths - he says most of the few that were made were made in 1967. I've just finished reading Entangled Life.
So happy for you Christian. Such a big build up - it was almost like I was experience it myself - without spending a year's income 🔷🔻🔶🔵
Great video upload and full watching! Thanks for sharing,have great day.
Your sheer joy was a joy Christian. Please oh please 🙏 make a Pianobook instrument for us all to share in your Joy! What more fitting an addition to the new site!!! Cheers 🍻
Those first two notes you played blew me away.
THAT THING SOUNDS LUSCIOUS!!
All these Rhodes instruments have Metal Reeds struck by hammers so they work the same way
That sounds positively GORGEOUS! I think I'll have to consider adding in some celeste in some of my music!
I recently bought a B-Stock Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S61 mkI for a fraction of the brand new price on Reverb. By far the nicest controller I'll likely own (I'm primarily a bassist). As a stupid kid in high school, I bought electric basses waaaay out of my budget and certainly outside of my skill level at the time. Now, my passion is getting fantastic tone out of affordable instruments (while still appreciating the craftsmanship of boutique and vintage instruments).
Congrats! Wonderful find. Maybe a Kontakt library?
I research exhaustively any instrument or gear before I buy it.
