A CELEBRATION OF SOUND
75 YEARS OF RHODES PIANOS
The MK8/75AE stands as a tribute to Harold Rhodes’ vision and the generations of players who have shaped music using Rhodes pianos.
Each MK8/75AE was meticulously handcrafted at our UK headquarters by a dedicated team of expert engineers, designers and technicians. The deep black finish, offset with gold-plated hardware, reflected both reverence for the past and a bold step forward into the future of electronic instruments.
Beyond its iconic look, this model came fitted with the full MK8 FX section, giving players access to a complete palette of classic analogue sounds.
Limited, luxurious, and undeniably Rhodes.
Key Features
A PIANO THAT MARKED A MOMENT
Designed to honour a milestone, the MK8/75AE edition combined legacy and modernity into one unforgettable instrument.
The dark, satin exterior was contrasted by polished gold-plated accents on the control interface, creating a strikingly elegant finish. Internally, every component was tuned to perfection – delivering the warmth, clarity and character Rhodes is known for, plus the flexibility of modern analogue FX.
Each unit came with a signed certificate of authenticity and unique serial number, making it one of the most exclusive editions in Rhodes history.
CREATED FOR COLLECTORS

Whether on stage, in the studio or in private collections, these rare instruments carry forward a heritage of invention, soul and artistry that has defined generations of music-making.
Though sold out, the 75AE remains a powerful symbol of what Rhodes stands for – and where we’re headed next.
