Get your headphones out for this. Mellotron flute samples triggered by guitar using a Sonuus converter box. Check out the pitch bending.

Accurate, fast MIDI pitch-bend tracking and this box works with other instruments including voice.

Big head? He's bordering on prick-dom. BTW, I'll bet that Fender Rhodes is harder to find these days than the continental. Like a fool, I sold my vox in 1986 for something like $75.

I guess it's necessary to love yourself so much when no one else will.
I have a silver speckle Fender Rhodes piano bass and two Vox Continentals (one British, One American - both with wooden keys) and can play all the same stuff he does - and so can just about everyone else I know with a Vox organ!
Guys like this are a dime a dozen - because of the attitude.
He's not impressive, the Vox and Piano bass are.

That Vox is *fabulous* and the piano bass is very clean.

Ah, but to actually do something original with the Vox and Bassman, now that would be magic. I used to own a Bassman. That is one fine instrument. Unfortunately you can’t seem to get the same sound out of a Rhodes.
