Fender Rhodes

[Dave Wolcott]

Hello all, I'm new here, love the Rhodes sound..what keyboard has the best emulation..I'm a guitar player and would like to learn keys but only if I can get a good Rhodes sound, and I can't pay 2k for a real Rhodes..why doesn't Fender wake the heck up and start making them again? But they'd prolly be 2k anyway..

What's your budget? Kurzweil PC361 (used for about $1,000) has a good emulation; Korg SV1 has a good emulation; Nord Electro 2 or Nord Electro rack has a good Rhodes and both can be obtained for under $1000 used.

I use a Kawai MP7 which has a pretty decent rhodes emulator. The Hammond SK1 also does a decent job but doesn't have the weighted keys. Then there is always the option of a controller and MainStage or similar software instruments
