Korg CX-3 Electric Keyboard with Metal Equipment Case
Item Details
Notes from Third Man Records Archivist Ben Blackwell:
A nifty lil’ Korg keyboard that was used live onstage by the White Stripes and still has the badass red-and-white road case to prove it. Is the Korg what Meg used when she played keys on ‘In the Cold, Cold Night’? Surely someone here knows the answer. This one has also been used in subsequent touring configurations since the White Stripes, easily noted by the Raconteurs logo sticker on the case. Additionally, this keyboard is actually painted White Stripes ‘red’ and was taped over with black tape once brought into the Raconteurs fold. How badass is that? Used live, in Europe, for both the White Stripes AND the Raconteurs. You’re welcome. A slick sounding instrument in and of itself without any of the historic connection or provenance. You seriously cannot go wrong owning this thing. It will change your life and most likely for the better. NOTE: British 220v power! This will not plug right into your American wall outlet, lest you wanna blow up the neighborhood.
