Found on eBay - Rodgers 5 manual

The old Rodgers 5-manual console from Carnegie Hall is for sale on eBay!

Now THAT would be a fun project!


*posted for informational purposes only. I have nothing to do with the sale of this merchandise.

The seller wants $54,000 for a console that has no tone-generating capability, and isn't even midified.

Dream on.

Yeah, I saw that... looks like a real humdinger. I think if I sat at the monster, I'd never get up... I'd play till my little fingers turned to bone!!

This console has been completely gutted, and should be considered to be a shell only. It would take a lot of work to get it playing again. It is a grand console, there is a pic of me sitting at it as the profile photo on my Facebook page.

If I had known it was for sale, I might have purchased it, as the price was most likely a LOT less than what he is asking.

I am currently reworking a large four manual Rodgers console that I got for paying the shipping. Guess I will just have to stick with that! Lol

Perhaps the high price is pie in the sky but note that the 'Make Offer' feature is offered. So add up the price of the manuals, the pedalboards, the toe-studs, the pistons, the draw-knobs, the couplers, etc and make an offer!

Well, you could always buy Carnegie Hall.
It looked pretty good on stage there.
I was there for Virgil's opening recital.
