Truly a great experience!! Nir is a gracious, informative expert who's effervescent love of the Rhodes is not only obvious in conversation, but in the quality and care of his work.
I'm a lifetime hack guitar player who, given the dynamics of a new project, decided to revisit the piano. I found a great deal on a '79 Mark 1 Stage model. She was quickly christened Irma, and our love affair began. I thought she sounded great - until I brought her into Nir's shop. He explained all that he needed to do, the resulting difference it would make, and why.
A week later, Irma sounds angelic. The quality, clarity and warmth of her tone is unreal. I never knew she could sound this good. What's more, I have a much better feel and understanding of the instrument as a whole thanks to easy and in depth explanations of what it takes to get that beautiful and irreplaceable sound.
Highly recommended. A truly rare moment where my expectations were far surpassed.
Thanks again Nir!!!
Spencer and Irma

You rock.. I love it.. I can hear overtones I never new my seventy three had. The nuances are superb and your personal preferences are immaculate. Your tune up has me rethinking my band structure and what instrument I want to lead with. I just don't want to get off the Rhodes. It sings and growls and is warmer then a deep Fried pancake. I guess if I had to sum it up in a world it would be "luscious." |

I just finished a tour called Zappa plays Zappa, (playing the music of Frank Zappa with Dweezil Zappa) and I used my freshly tuned and repaired Mark II the whole way. Nir did an absolutely amazing job with my Rhodes, and I would highly recommend him to everyone who wants to hear the sweet sound of a well-functioning and in-tune Rhodes. Thanks again, Nir! |

Unreal! Hands down, the most intensely satisfying transaction I've ever had the pleasure of being involved in - no exaggeration. Nir not only quickly turned my suitcase from ashes to gold, but kept me apprised every step of the way, thoroughly and objectively explaining my options - even going out of his way to accommodate my budget. All in all, a man of great integrity. If you're looking for Rhodes service, look no further. Thanks again, Nir! |

When it comes to Fender Rhodes servicing, Nir Benjaminy @ Fender Rhodes LA is the way to go. Nir has proven to be highly knowledgeable, passionate, & devoted to his work. I wouldn't trust my Rhodes to anyone else! Reasonable prices and fast turnaround time. You'll leave his shop knowing a lot more about your piano. Thanks, Nir! |

Incredible work. I brought in a Mark I that was unplayable and Nir did a charity job on it, bringing it back to life. The harp now sounds amazing and is a blast to play. Highly recommended with extremely reasonable prices. |

This guy is by far the best Rhodes Technician you will EVER have the honor of working on your Rhodes!!! He worked on all 3 of my Rhodes and they are better than new!! He loves his work, and your Rhodes could not be in better hands.... I couldn't possibly recommend Nir any higher.. He's an artist without peer.... I am considering buying some more Rhodes just to have Nir work on them... now if he could just fix my Clavinet and Wurlitzer!!! |

Top notch service! Nir gave me his frank opinion of my gear, and gave me many options from which to choose. He is very knowledgeable and is happy to share his knowledge of how to keep your piano in good shape after he fixes it. I highly recommend Nir to anyone who wants their Rhodes to play better than new! Thanks, Nir! |

Outstanding work! He's got my BEAT UP 73' suitcase back to factory conditions! A wonderful experience! His knowledge on the instrument is also impeccable meanwhile he is able to impart a ton of crucial info to a non tech savvy person as myself. |

I would like to echo the positive comments found here. Nir is thorough, clear, and transparent. He didn't charge me a dime for the time he spent revealing all the opportunities for improvement with my instrument. He laid out a series of circumstances so I can make choices, and demonstrated for me the results I could expect. All done with no pressure or useless self-promotion. |
