Service
|
We can restore any Fender Rhodes instrument back to its original factory specs, or rebuild it with custom modifications.
In our workshop we can demonstrate the available
modifications and upgrades for each model. Our work is fully documented in detailed service records and photos. We always work within our clients' budget and every step is pre-authorized and backed up by our warranty. |
Parts
We take exceptional care in selecting the right replacements parts to perfectly fit every model and stock a collection of vintage parts from 1965-1984 to match the exact sound, feel and action of the pianos we service. Our voicing and tuning procedures are done under strict calibration schedule using digital and analog diagnostic and analysis tools that help us perfect the tone and action of the piano.
External Restoration
We provide detailed external restoration service. The external vinyl cover ('Tolex') can be renewed with the original black Tolex color or modified with a variety of colors and patterns to make it unique. We have all the hardware (corners, handles, glides) to replace rusty old nickel with fresh, original nickel plated hardware, and we can perform custom modification to the case. Tolex selector »

Rhodes pianos since 1994 . He was
introduced to servicing Fender Rhodes pianos while working
for the Berklee's
College of Music extension in Israel. Nir is a graduate of the Israeli
Conservatoire in classical music. Parallel to his career in music, Nir
