The Fender Rhodes Piano Bass is an iconic, electro-mechanical instrument produced primarily between 1964 and 1969. Famously utilized by Ray Manzarek of The Doors, it serves as the lowest 32 keys of a standard Rhodes, designed to cover the range of an electric bass.
Core Specifications
Keyboard: 32 keys (2.5 octaves)
Pitch Range: Low E to High B (E1 to B3) – covering the exact range of a standard 4-string electric bass.
Sound Generation: Electro-mechanical. Felt hammers strike small metal rods called tines, which vibrate and are picked up by electromagnetic sensors (pickups).
Controls: Passive volume and tone knobs.
Enclosure: Portable, suitcase-style casing.
Standard tolex-covered hardshell lid.
Dimensions & Weight:
Measures roughly 35" x 14" x 9" and weighs around 30 to 35 lbs, making it highly portable.
Power / Output: Passive electronics require no external power to generate sound, but a pre-amp or external amplifier/PA system is required to boost the line-level signal.
