Tuning Fender Rhodes
Why Tune Your Fender Rhodes
Over time and with use, the tines on a Fender Rhodes can become out of tune, affecting the in-tuneness of each note. Unlike the strings on an acoustic piano, the tines are metal components, and while they are sturdy, they require regular adjustment to maintain accurate tuning.
A properly tuned Rhodes not only ensures correct pitch, it also helps preserve the unique timbre and harmonic richness of the instrument. Tuning also helps provide a balanced sound across the entire keyboard, which is essential for professional recording or live performance.
Custom tuning for each instrument
Tuning a Fender Rhodes is not done in the same way as a classic piano. Indeed, the particular construction of the tines requires specific know-how. At Funky Keys, our technicians are specialized in tuning Fender Rhodes and adapt each intervention according to the characteristics of your model.
During our intervention, we:
Diagnose the general condition of the instrument to detect the tines requiring adjustment.
