Vintage Vibe exists because Rhodes, Wurlitzers and Clavinets were rotting in closets instead of being played, and Chris and Fred decided to keep them alive and then build better ones. The Recording Club runs on the same belief: gear belongs in rooms, in sessions, in hands. Platinum puts a Vintage Vibe 73 inside the building, and the doors below are already built. Click anything.
The roster that plays your instruments is our membership's exact world: the R&B, jazz and neo-soul players who reach for a Rhodes sound. Four things Platinum builds for Vintage Vibe, all included.
A Vintage Vibe 73 lives permanently in the main tracking room next to the acoustic piano, so every session reaching for that sound plays yours instead of a plugin. Every session is a demo, and nobody is being sold to.
The instrument gets featured in the building, and we print a Vintage Vibe look book that lives on site. When a player finishes a take and asks what that Rhodes was, staff hand them the book and send them to you.
Owners register a piano by serial and get its restoration record, an exploded diagram that turns your 467-part catalogue into a tap-to-order menu for their exact instrument, a service log, and voicing guides. The full vision is on the app board. We shipped the same app for Darryl Jones's bass owners, so yours is a build, not a promise.
You have no West Coast presence and your customers are disproportionately LA session players. A Google Maps pin at the club, your endorsers hosted for sessions, content shot on the 5-camera stage. Santa Monica becomes your room on this coast.
The list is not fixed. Platinum means the club's design and engineering team works for Vintage Vibe. Sites and apps are designed and built at no cost, then maintained at $70 an hour, half our public rate. You keep a fifty-year-old instrument alive; we hold the build to the same standard.
This is what Platinum's build team sees for Vintage Vibe's web presence, built as a working concept from your own catalogue: 81 pages that finally tell the instruments and the parts apart. Click anything and walk through it.
All 467 products split into an instrument path and a parts path, your real prices, rebuilt around your own teal and rust.

Darryl Jones, bassist for the Rolling Stones, joined Platinum. The club rebuilt his company's website, shipped an iPhone app for the players who own his basses, and designed the wall where his basses will sell in the building. All of it included in his membership. Read the full case study.
Twelve pages, every bass with real specs, a custom-shop configurator.
