Here's a walk through and tour of the Hohner Clavinet I from our Hohner tech, Kellen. The first Clavinet ever released, the Clavinet I offers some really cool insight in to the development of the Clavinet, a cool look into how developed it already was upon first release, and is a wonderful instrument to boot.

We overhauled and restored this Clavinet I here at Chicago Electric Piano Co, and are happy to restore any more Clavinets that come our way. Please get in touch if you have a Clavinet that needs restoration or any level of service.

Thanks for watching!

Hohner Clavinet I Deep Dive

Chicago Electric Piano April 29, 2025 09:15

We were fortunate to host our northern neighbor Mathieu David Gagnon for an impromptu performance at our workshop. The brainchild behind Flore Laurentienne, Mathieu is no stranger to vintage keyboard instruments with a touring rig that consists of a Wurlitzer 200a, Mini Moog, and Farfisa Transichord (just to name a few).
While he typically performs with a string quartet and percussionist, Mathieu can create lush sounds with just two instruments! Here he is on our reissue Moog Model D and Wurli 106p played through an Echoplex. For more Flore, check out @florelaurentienne
