Yes, a very rare model.
He also used a Fender Rhodes 73/88, an adjustable model which came in handy when they had to play small pubs on their mid-70s tours.
His favourite instrument was an Arp Quadra Pro Soloist Eminent Solina String Ensemble, and not the Yamaha EX1/GX1 or the Fairlight Series I / Series II / Series IIx like some people presume.
After Rick passed away a few years ago, some actor in LA bought all Rick's instruments because they were so rare and vintage. ;-)
