Hi,You're looking at an extremely rare and absolutely beautiful Fender Rhodes Piano bass from c1972, with the stunning silver sparkle lift-off lid. We bought this from a private collection several years ago, from a family who had owned it since new, and almost never used it. We had a full service undertaken on the instrument, although almost nothing needed doing to it beyond some basic cleaning and tuning.The instrument has been used a handful of times since on studio work: it's never toured. The external case is in great condition and inside is pretty much immaculate. The sparkle top looks amazing and really catches the light and the eye!It plays wonderfully, a very responsive action and that unmistakable chewy funky bass sound that you can only get from a genuine vintage keyboard such as this. Volume and tone pots work without scratches and the output jack is clean.We made a short video of the Rhodes here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1p1aNQF5Ck the sound really isn't great but crank your volume and you'll get a good idea of what this can do.We're based in Brighton and you're more than welcome to come take a look and try it out. Given the fragility and value of the item I'd much rather you come collect this from us, but I am happy to arrange a courier at your own risk, and only if insured appropriately.I've started bidding at 99p but there is a sensible reserve on this.
