"The name "Solvent" comes from a song on Skinny Puppy's first commercial release, the "Remission" EP. Here be the "Wall of Skinny Puppy" - something that I was lucky enough to see in person at Subconscious Studios, where I interviewed cEvin Key for the "I Dream of Wires" documentary (http://vimeo.com/idreamofwires/idow). This is the actual gear: *the* Pro-One, *the* 909, and *the* 808s, etc, heard on so many of my favorite Skinny Puppy tracks. Brap!"

This hand-made, incredibly crude, near prototype example is mostly original. While it is missing the original chrome seat and stand apparatus, the piano portion is completely intact and in excellent functional condition. Aside from one tine/tonebar having been broken, it works perfectly and sounds particularly great. Imagine an amplified, though more substantial, Jaymar or Schoenhut toy piano: it sounds kinda like that.
Prior to the Pre-Piano, Rhodes was commissioned to build the Xylette, an acoustic lap piano that was designed for therapeutic use, in addition to being a teaching tool. With the success of the Xylette, Rhodes went on to debut his first electric piano, the Rhodes Pre-Piano, in 1946. The Pre-Piano features an amplifier configured with (1) 7F7, (1) 6V6, and (1) 6X5 tubes through a 1 x 6" original speaker (473820), and a piezo pickup on the bottom harp."
