Never seen this kind of Clavioline , I have the standard and Concert version but never seen your version wow , just needs the copper key contacts cleaning , or sometimes bending back into shape ,
Thanks for the comment. Yes, fixing the contacts and switches problem and tuning (in fact i sold it as semi-working). The Clavioline is an instrument that has been made by many different brands in those years but you are right, the one made by Farfisa is a rare beast (i've seen only two others on the web)... and there isn't much information about it even here in Italy.
@@theitalianmod thanx for reply , yes I never knew Farfisa did a version , think Revox or a name like that did a version ?? Built like tanks but the keys and contacts are so delicate arnt they , I said Copper contacts but thinking now I might be wrong , think mine where copper coated or something ,
In the Farfisa version under each key there are two or three metal reed (probably copper but i can't remember.. i have to see my pics) to make the contact.I know Jorgensen, Gibson, Selmer (probably the most "famous" version of Clavioline) had made their own Clavioline or similar instrument but there are also Hohner, Jennings, Farfisa etc. But in those years there were a lot of this kind of monophonic tube proto-synth, some very similar to each other, others completely different.
