After months of tempting, The Legendary Rhodes Piano returned, with the Rhodes music group opened a pre-order for the new MK8 model on Wednesday. The price costs $ 9,450. And it’s just the price of the base model. Want a transparent RAD hood? That’s an additional $ 575. What about the shell under walnut? Add another $ 1,095.

With all the extra possibilities, you can expect to pay $ 12,640 for one MK8. That’s a lot when you assume you can find vintage rhodes with only $ 2,500, and they are still very desirable.

If the price of the MK8 does not fear you, we recommend that you order one as soon as possible. With each assembled by hand in the company’s factory in Leeds, England, Rhodes only hopes to produce around 500 MK8 units in 2022. You can claim the place according to paying one in full or put a 20 percent deposit. The preamp-one delivery model will begin in the first quarter of 2022, with one effect panel to follow before the second half of this year.

It is difficult to exaggerate how important Rhodes Piano has visited contemporary popular music history. It is very important for the evolution of Jazz and Rock and Roll in the 60s, with Kieth Jarrett and Ray Manzarek only a few musicians who use instruments to create extraordinary melodies. Recently, he had made his presence feel on the track from Nils Frahm and Thom Yorke. And now has the opportunity to inspire a new generation of musicians.
