About to do a full refurb of this Rhodes, but before I did that, I wanted to attempt a video where I played around its problems. Only about 70% of the notes work at all, and some experimenting showed as long as I stayed in G blues box, I could mostly have notes that made Rhodes-ish sounds, instead of various plonks and thunks. I'm not terribly comfortable playing in G, and I'm sure that shows, but horsing around is horsing around. Good Saturday-night fun, anyhow.
Busted-Ass Rhodes...

Good luck. I had a Rhodes Mark II back in the days (it was about 1979/1980). I loved it and it was the instrument I collected a lot of experience with playing in a band (and a jazz big band from time to time). But then the roof of the building I used to rehearse in was blown away in a storm and the rain damaged my good old Rhodes completely.
I´ll follow you hoping to see and hear everything working fine with your gear. Enjoy your day! Rolf from the Czech Republic

If you're ever sitting alone in the dark wondering "will Steemit become a vibrant platform for talking about anything besides Steemit?" the answer is "not until stupid shit like this goes away."
