IK Multimedia Wurly Model 120
Step back into the golden age of electric pianos with the Wurly Model 120, a faithful recreation of the iconic Wurlitzer Model 120 from the 1950s. This rare instrument, renowned for its warm, soulful tone, offers a unique alternative to more common electric pianos like the Rhodes or later Wurlitzer models.
Distinctive Tonal Character
The Wurlitzer Model 120 achieves its unmistakable sound through hammers striking metal reeds, paired with electromagnetic pickups. This combination delivers a vibrant, organic tone that has stood the test of time. Its valve-based Class AB push-pull amplifier, powered by two 6v6 vacuum tubes, adds an extra layer of warmth and character, distinguishing it from later models like the Wurlitzer 200A.
When a Rhodes Is Not Enough
The Wurly Model 120 found its place in music history with artists like Ray Charles, who used it on classics such as What Id Say and Unchain My Heart. IK Multimedia meticulously sampled a pristine 1959 Model 120, capturing every nuance of its analog tone and dynamic expression using deep multi-velocity sampling techniques. The result is an instrument that embodies mid-century modern style and timeless musical inspiration.
