Rhodes Flat Top Suitcase 88 Piano

Rhodes - Flat Top Suitcase 88

This Rhodes was my Dads and since he passed away some 15 years ago has been in storage with not a note played on it in that time. We are its 2nd owner and to my knowledge has only ever been used in a home  / studio setup.

Recently reassembled it - plugged it in and remembering what a great sound it previously had, was dissappointed that some notes were not evenly pitched - some a bit softer / some a bit louder. The whole top octave is feint and the sustain pedal is non functional.

Have spoken to a professional technician who wasn't surprised considering its' inactivity but as its problems were not due to overuse and wear and tear most likely needed a good general service.

This has been one of those things I've been "gunna do" but due to problems transporting it and that we now are selling the family home - it's got to go.

Piano is therefore offered "as is", would suit someone with servicing skills - this is an extremely rare opportunity to attain a legendary icon.

Cosmetically it is in great condition, tolex is original, keys are even and unmarked and action is flawless. Pre-amp / speakers are good, there is some staining on the lid of the transport case (not part of the assembled piano - see picture)

Inspection can be arranged -  (Matraville / Maroubra area)

Due to size and weight, pickup is required - will consider transport (Australia only)  if you organise.
