Re: [SurfGuitar101] Re: Organ Sound for Surf Music...( and Dave Baby Cortez)

Jon:
Thanks for the info...so the Fender Rhodes appeared around
the end of The Doors and during Stevie Wonder's early-funk
years? I will have to look into that. Any idea when the
Fender Keyboard Bass came on line? I know Ray Manzarek of
the Doors relied upon it, I wonder if anyone earlier
utilized it?
