Cembalet I

Here are two pictures and a video of Cembalets, all from the Chicago Electric Piano Co.  The two pictures show different instruments, but as far as I can tell, these are all Cembalet I models.

Bartók: First Term at the Piano, Sz. 53, No. 10 Folk Melody


Just for fun and to enhance the eeriness of this piece, I also recorded a version played an octave lower and with a phasing effect, which was occasionally used with the Pianet.  Richard Manuel used a Pianet through a phaser on the Band's Rock of Ages; Rod Argent used one on Argent's Nexus and Encore; and the Pianet M had a built-in phaser.

Pianet N

Here are some pictures of a Pianet N sold in an online auction in 2013.  These are the only pictures I've ever seen of the key that locks the cover.

Cembalet CF

Here are some pictures of a Cembalet CF listed in an online auction in 2013.  This set includes the best pictures I've seen of the underside of a Hohner instrument, showing off the jacks for connecting an amplifier and headphones.

"Der Kuckuck und der Esel"


An-other one I got from a website of German folk tunes.  Because it's a bit short, I went through it twice.
