Is a plucked clavinet an alternative to an electric guitar?
This is a radical departure in sound, stemming from the unique sounds of the Hohner Clavinet. A deep and colorful, freely formed exploration of clavinet timbres. And very different from the sounds that are usually associated with the clavinet. The sounds were caused by plucking the strings. Not using the keyboard. By playing directly on the strings, you can use a variety of techniques commonly used by guitarists. But it doesn’t look like a guitar! The Clavinet has been reincarnated into various forms and adventurous patches.
