Aguante Charly

It's actually an Electric Baby Grand Piano. It has the same action as a Traditional Piano but the strings (which are akin to Standard Piano Strings) are amplified by Pickups like an Electric Guitar. They're actually Piezo Pickups so it makes the instrument sound more like a true Amplified Piano.
-
Reminds me instantly of Tony Banks and Elton John. Love this instrument on tracks like Heathaze and Turn it On Again
-
3:00 - It even says 'OUT'... Why are you calling them inputs ?!
-
I see this instrument often in vintage synth videos. Thank you for featuring this legacy instrument.

The Helpinstill company that makes those Piano Pickups got that inspiration from the Yamaha CP-70 & CP-80 Electric Baby Grand Pianos. The sound that you'd get out of an Acoustic Piano fitted w/ Helpinstill Pickups is akin to a CP-80 but more refined cause you now have a Soundboard & longer Bass Strings.

First time I heard it was on Elton John’s USSR concert in 1979. I just love the sounds of the lower keys
-
Great video and playing man - thank you!
-
Sounds just like Charly García...
-
Thank you for introducing vulfpeck to me, i just listened to tee time and it's awesome! I love it when old instruments are used to create contempirary music.
-
You sold me on this piano. Should be nice for my apartment, loud enough to hear but quiet enough to keep from bothering anybody. I can't wait to get my own.
-
Saw Howard Jones use this in concert -- sometime around 1984. That's what sold me.
-
Wow! The polyverse widener really improved the stereo image! Bought mine new for $2500 in 1978.

este teclado se debería llamar Charly García
-
i found out about this piano on a Coldplay concert, i thoght it was some kind of keyboard/case situatio haha, like a keyboard that was its own case too, it really catch my attention.
-
Just about to visit one of these to tune it !!
-
Great video my dude. Would love to see if you can figure out how to mimic the keyboard sound from New Years Day by U2.
-
Hey man...How can I reach you for a potential project?

when i first heard about the rhodes when i was a kid, as an "electric piano", i thought it was exactly this. then i found out about tines and reeds, and about stringed clavs, and didn't think about it anymore. i can't believe it took me this long to finally research this "missing link" kind of instrument, and it turns out that first, i had already heard it all over the place without paying attention, and second, it sounds better to my ears than a rhodes or a wurli. nice.

I believe Prince used one in the ‘Purple Rain’ film. My father bought one from a pawn shop about 1987/1988 but my stepmother ended up selling it to a church around 1995. I never learned how to play properly but wish I still had it. It even had two road cases…and it definitely weighed a million pounds!
