Wonderful playing! Used to play bass with a band. The keys player had a rhodes 73 mki and a synth on top of it. Since those days i want to have a Rhodes, not my priority right now but.. what a nice sounding and pleasant to play instrument!
I watch this video often because I love your playing! Especially the first little phrase with the heavy bass part. What song is that? Sounds familiar...
Do you mind telling me whether the mk.1 is from early ‘76 or late? I’m currently looking at buying a 1976 suitcase 73 and an really trying to weigh up all options before pulling the trigger haha
Great .....can you help me with my rhodes...?? I have a problem.. the keys are dislevel. I dont know how to fix it...im from México and nobody knows about the piano mantenience thanx😢😢😢😢
Are you going to pay my flight from Australia? Vintage Vibe do a kit called the Miracle Mod, I'm currently in the process of installing it on my Mark 1. It's a bit of work but not that bad.
LostInFunk Vintage Vibe miracle mod is not something unique. Read a later Rhodes manual! They talk about how to add the action bump mod to earlier pianos. And you’re supposed to use felt and not plastic. Vintage vibe is the cheap and easy route to NOT doing it the way the ACTUAL pianos manual suggests... not the route I’d go, but that’s on you...

Man thanks for showing us your rhodes I think both of them sounds great I have a 88 suitcase mar 1 with the sliders. Andy
That's my favorite type!
Yikes, both sound amazing! I prefer your MK2! Very round.
Mark I all the way! Such a beautiful slightly distorted "character" sound. DIRTY!!!
Great testing with the RCA instead of the output jack
Yeah otherwise it would skew the results
Great demonstration, thank you

Hey, nice playing ! How much did you pay for the suitcase m2 by that time in 2017? How did you like its key action ?
I think around 1.5k. Action is wonderful!
@@dspiffy what a deal ! it's unlikely to get it at this price nowadays. The prices of rhodes on Reverb just went insane
Mark 1, definitely!
Great Video Dan! I just acquired a 76 mark 1. It sounds so much like yours and also needs work. Im wondering what work you have done since this post?
Not much of any
In your opinion which Rhodes tone sounds warmer?
I like Mark I!
MK II 👑
Do you have one pair of shoes for every note on the keyboard?
I'd have to count. There are more shoes in another room.

I honestly dont know. How much is the Suitcase?

I'm sorry, I dont know how to fix that either, try the Fender Rhodes group on Facebook
I hear a lot about the poor action on the Mk1. Is this because it is just old and needs work done on it?
In my case, I think so!
Nice shoe collection, too.
Thanks!
What are those chords youre playing?
Cant Hide Love by Earth Wind & Fire
do you have the chords for this? I really want to learn how to play this
👏👏👏
MK1 has a wurli-like tone when play it hard
That's why I like it!
I prefer the suitcase.
If you need money for your upgrade you could always sell some shoes. :)
Dont think I'd get much for them!
If you don't like the action of your Mk1 then sort it out. It's really not difficult.
Why dont you come do it?

I dont like mods.

Just test the caps
Which caps?
Dan ''Spiffy'' Neuman have you got a pre-amp on the mkii?
@@DaraM73 In this video they are both going through the same preamp, that's why I came right off the harp
