I bought this Fender Rhodes Mk 1 stage 88 today. Absolutely awesome sounding instrument. I've been wanting one for quite some time (years even, im in love with the sound), and i was offered the opportunity to buy one for a great price and in great condition. $300 Australian!!!! I love it, and even though it's the heaviest ****in' thing i've ever tried to pick up, it's SO worth it for the sound and character of it, i'm working on making a custom trolley for it, to make it easier to take to gigs. Please discuss about rhodes' pianos and get some pics happening if you own one yourself.

nice. They are badass.

I would love to have one, but

1) they're so flippin heavy
2) I would spend less time drumming , which could be bad

Links don't work.

Fixing them just goes straight to imageshack page.

Fender Rhodes.......cool....

But if you think they're heavy, try lugging a Hammond C3 up a fire exit stairwell...
