The Toblerone

How strange! Every time we look at this Wurlitzer Piano 300 from this angle we can’t help but think of Swiss chocolate.

And we still don’t know how you even come up with the idea of cutting a corner off this rather rare model to later reuse it. The world is full of mysteries!

Somewhat puzzlingly, Wurlitzer even continued this strategy of releasing a considerable range of models of the legendary Wurlitzer Piano without cutting a single corner, if only figuratively. As a result, this Piano 300 also has the typical range of 64 keys and an unremarkable design that’s more suited to the home.

Wurlitzer Piano 300 - Pedal (1973) by Rudolph Wurlitzer CompanyEBOARDMUSEUM

Where Do We Know This Pedal From?

The famous pedal from the still-famous Wurlitzer Piano 200—specifically the Piano 200-A—is hidden inside, probably to save costs.

And the fact that this rarity shown here was manufactured in the small north German town of Hüllhorst is likely thanks to Rudolph Wurlitzer’s German roots.
