Vintage Vibe Marquis 73 Piano • 73 Keys Active

Our Active Marquis features the latest revision of our StereoVibe preamp.
Lithium battery-power provides 18 hours of playtime. Fast charging is accomplished by a USB-C standard cell phone charger, and can be charged while playing.
The new EQ curve allows the musician to precisely dial in harmonic attack, while preserving clarity in the upper register.

The new tremolo features the widest range of speed we have ever offered, and an improved waveform provides a most accurate recreation of the incandescent light bulb tremolo found in the iconic Peterson Suitcase pianos. Well defined, vibraphone and Wurlitzer vibes in mono, as well as soft, ethereal panning in stereo are easily attainable.
The effects loop directs an off-the-harp signal through any pedal(s) of your choosing.
Stereo headphone jack included.

A Tale of Two American Classics-

Action-

The Marquis features the latest revision of our patented Dual Capstan Action. Hammer height at rest, key dip and escapement are all individually adjusted for the most even feel ever attained in a tine piano. Our latest jack reduces drag, providing an accelerated hammer throw. Our new hammers feature a revised balance, further accelerating hammer throw.

Dynamic Response

Coupled with the most adjustable action available, the Marquis features our latest, True-Tone Tines. After 14 years of research, our latest tines consistently capture the characteristics of the best Original Tines from the early MK 1 era. Beautiful, round fundamentals under a light touch, as well as the longest decay of harmonic content possible under spirited playing result in an electric piano that truly sings.

Portability

Along with its Classic 73 and Deluxe 73 siblings, The Marquis 73 weighs in at 60lbs; half the weight of a Fender Rhodes MK1. By far the lightest 73 note electromechanical offerings. Portability

Style

All of our developments are housed in a streamlined homage to the original Fender-Rhodes MK1 piano. The chassis is covered in durable Tolex-type vinyl covering, and features an elegant, weight reducing, low profile design.
The name rail is anodized aluminum, just like the original, and sits upon solid ash cheek blocks.
The ABS lid is all Vintage Vibe with our classic V scoop and Chrome V logo, yet is serenely reminiscent of the Fender Rhodes Mk1 Piano. A simple lifting of the lid and one is transported into the gorgeous shimmer of shiny metal and creative hardwood design below – a true masterpiece in today’s world of planned obsolescence.
The traditional style sustain pedal provides decades of trouble-free service. No pressure points to break, no cables to stretch or fray, and a smooth, unmatched feel.
All Marquis Pianos come with chrome plated, adjustable legs and crossmembers that exceed original specifications in fit and finish.
