The FenderRhodes and stuff


Here's a shot of Nori playin the Rhodes we use for our concerts in Takanawa.

It's a little road worn but still sounds great.
Lo-Fi loves the way the instrument sounds. Unlike many modern. Keyboards, it really sounds different depending on which one you play



Check out this photo of the insides of the Rhodes.
I never really had a chance to look at it, and never had a chance to look into the history of it either.

But one look into the construction and the mystery of why fender was making keyboards was obvious.

If you look to the left side of the photo you can see the copper color of the coils for the magnetic pick-ups



We want to take this one on the road with us, but considering the weight and the fragility of this instrument, we haven't found the right opportunity just yet.

We are definitely going to use it for our next album though.
Hopefully a good amp will be available for us to get the right tone out of it!

For tonight's concert we'll be using a two keyboard setup, with the Nord and the Yamaha. Not enough channels though at tonights bar to do our full setup with the samplers though.

See y'all tonight!
