I’ve seen it sitting on top of his mellotron in 73-74- I remember thinking it was a Hohner pianet but I could be wrong.
I used to play my Rhodes through a roland funny cat that did fuzz and harmonic shifts-fun.
 

I remember seeing Fripp play what looked to be an Italian electronic
piano or some other small keyboard sometimes run through a fuzzbox.
That was during the Larks's Tongue tour. On the recordings I have
heard what sounds very much like a Rhodes through distortion box ( a
classic and rarely discussed technique, killer on power chords).
