Thank you to everyone who came out to the E Piano class at the PTG convention! First time teaching was pretty stressful but I was wowed by the crowd! They even had to upgrade the room since the first session ran out of seats!

Already in talks about another class next year…

Finally finished with the shop Philicordia—this is the 7500 with the 7600 external amplifier stand.

Ended up getting a brown acrylic lid done for this so you can see the tubes/neon bulbs better—but it’s a bit thick so it can be hard to see. Really like how they replicated the rear vent pattern.

1979 Rhodes Mk1 Suitcase sleeper build

Overhauled interior paired with a sleek “almost original” exterior makes for the ultimate incognito player. What was once a black grilled suitcase model is now closer to an early mk1 suitcase with the updated grill cloth, along with a black early 60’s fender tolex instead of the classic print.

Now living its new life in OHIO, full restoration video Friday

Part two of the custom acrylic visualizer build photos!

You wouldn’t believe how hard it is to photograph something that wants to reflect everything off of it lmao. Maybe I should do a mirror lid next just to make my job more difficult
