Rhodes has announced the latest piano in its Custom Shop is the Rhodes MK8 “Golden Brown”, a rare tribute to one of the most charismatic instruments of the 1960s, the Rhodes Gold Sparkle Piano Bass.
Both a nod to the past and a reinvention with the expressive range and precision of a modern Rhodes.
Hand-built by Rhodes Master Builders in the UK, it will be produced in a single run and will never return.
