In this video I do as genuine unboxing of an extraordinary piece of keyboard history without knowing what it really is. Will this be my rock bottom or have I become the custodian of something my children will pass down to their children? Are you as foolhardy as I with your purchases, a category one consumer or are you a spec hound category two?
Join me back here on the 12th of October 17.00 GMT for the launch of pianobook v3.0 check back after then for a link to the *FREE* "Pitched Electric Celeste"

im sad cuz ive been hunting for a non-galactic priced regular celeste for ages and this video will now put it even further out of reach ahahah. anyone else surprised to see no sustain? i always thought this was a fundamental part of the celeste..?

"It's a fucking celeste" and the sheer joy on your face is probably the most emotional moment I've seen in one of your videos. And I've seen them all.

I was legitimately nervous for you before you pressed the keys. Sounds incredible and can’t wait for the sample!

@watercolourmark 2 года назад

“Sounds incredible”, I was thinking it sounds shitty. Sounds like a cheap Kids xylophone from China, which is not a good place to build sounds from. But I imagine if someone is spending around £20k on a piece of rare vintage crap then people are going to romanticise. But let’s be honest, ears are still a thing - that is a very rare vintage piece of shite.

Beautiful instrument! Hard to understand why Fender only made ten of them, after taking the time and effort to develop it ... and it having such a wondrous tone.

@keiththeodosiou 2 года назад

To be really honest, I have never been a fan of the Rhodes but i must say this Celeste sounds absolutely gorgeous! My spending habits on gear is simple, when i've got dosh, I buy gear. Thats why i've never got dosh! lol

Not a fan of the Rhodes? Well I disagree however I respect your opinion as a member of the deaf community.

Okay... when it comes to sample libraries, I am MOST DEFINITELY a Type 1 consumer... especially with Spitfire and another unnamed company! Even though I've not had much time to dig into the libraries I've purchased, I still get more!! Seeing the look on your face when you realized that you hadn't been scammed was priceless!!!

I had to stop the video and crack up after your motorcycle imitation!! That was priceless!! Loved it!!! Along with the entire video!!

@tegknox2694 Год назад

Truly an extraordinary instrument. It was a total blast watching you discover its true nature. Many of us have that "bad room" where our unfortunate equipment decisions go to die. I certainly do. However I also have a well equiped toy room and can report that for you, me and many of our friends a bad room is actually required for to have a super happy fun room.

@zither715 2 года назад

Christian, that was absolutely genius. Pitching it down that is. I’m imagining it produces a lot of harmonics post 20k. Your reaction was priceless too. Best video you’ve done in a while. I’m so excited to get the samples from piano book!

@franm6569 2 года назад

What a beautiful instrument! I'd have to describe myself as a type two since the world shut down, although I did pick up Symphonic Organ recently. I've had my eye on it since seeing "The House With the Clocks in the Wall" with my kids. ...cheers

@vkm.official 2 года назад

Stoked that it worked out for you! I certainly know those terrible moments where you think you’ve made a major purchase mistake. Fortunately, it usually works out somehow, even if it wasn’t exactly what you wanted (or needed). To answer your question, I purchase when I know my upcoming gig will cover at least 50% of the cost. I often bite my nails regretting larger purchases, but it goes away once I unbox it and play around for a few hours. In the end, I’ll just say, “It brings me happiness, and happiness is worth it”. 👍🏻

The "when you get a new job" part really got me. When I got my first job, I got myself an OP-1 with the money I had saved in case I didn't get said job. Turns out I only began working a month later and needed money to get through my first month working. So in the end, I didn't have the money at all to afford the OP-1 I had bought. It has changed my life for the better, both in getting an OP-1, and in teaching me not to make such a mistake again haha.
