I just got in a Rhodes for repair that was made in 1975. It does not have the Fender label, only the Rhodes. I was suprised to see that it has wooden hammers. It was always my understanding that when the nameplate changed, so did the hammers. The person I am repairing it for is the original owner and confirmed that it has not been modified. My guess is that there was a transitional period when they nameplate changed, but the new design wasn't ready yet.
If anyone can shed some light on this I would appreciatte it.
Thanks
Andrew
