These are a very nice instrument, I bought mine back in1990 for £15, sold it last year for nearly £3000! I did change a few of the electrolitics, but the main smoothers tested fine, These are tuned by adding or removing solder from the reeds, looking forward to part 2.
Light in the Hallway by PTX arranged by Roger Emerson (Piano part from SATBB version) would sound amazing on these kinds of Electric Pianos because the Tines give them that very magical sound.
My Wurlitzer EP 200A has the exact same distortion symptom yours had, so I want to try replacing the three transistors that you replaced at the end of your video, which solved your distortion. Unfortunately, when you discuss ordering the correct parts (around 54 minutes into your video), I become confused regarding the exact part descriptions I would need to search for on eBay. In other words, although I can locate them on the schematic as, say, TR7, or TR 14, I don’t know enough about the values, and Wurlitzer parts vs. generic parts, to know what I can substitute. If you could tell me exactly what you bought I would much appreciate it. Thanks!
I tried but I don’t know how to join a blog. I tried to post the same comment there, but it said I needed to sign in with Google - I tried that - didn’t work either -I am at a loss :-(.

Thanks, that means a lot.
12:05 - definitely been there before!
Was that a Clem Fandango reference? Kudos. Great video
I wasn't allowed at the time to say who's piano it was, so there were a few hints ...
@@AndyDoz aha.

What is the best way to paint the exterior lid? Mine is white and has stains on it. Thanks! Adam
This instrument was actually painted by the owner using normal car aerosol cans... make sure you use a plastic primer... maybe consult a bodyshop?
