At freqControl.com we recently had our intern/resident piano tuner Nick do a video How-To about tuning a Fender Rhodes. Check it out in the Tech Talk section!

that's pretty cool, and takes a little of the mystery out of stretch tuning.

You have an in-house piano tuner and he's an INTERN?!?!?!?! I seriously hope you paid him for that effort.

I tuned my Rhodes for 15 years, until I finally sold it. Easy as hell. Much easier than a Wurlizter. I'm kicking myself in the ass for selling the Rhodes though.
