This Rhodes has felt hammers like a piano. They did this in the 1960’s. After 50 years of use you can see the deep grooves cut on the hammers.
I am half way done hand filing them to get rid of the grooves and reshape them.
Very uneven hammers. I need to bring up the hammers to decrease strike distance.
You can see the left side – the hammers are now the right distance.
That little bit makes a world of difference. This piano will be able to play at soft dynamics now.
