Hohner Clavinet I

In a 1968 performance, Stevie Wonder can be seen using the Hohner Clavinet I on the song "Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day." Stevie acquired the Clavinet I for his tenth studio album For Once in My Life, starting in 1968, as he was seeking a keyboard instrument with a guitar-like sound. According to Jim Allen on Reverb, "The jazz, funk and disco pedigree of the Clavinet is very well documented elsewhere; the earliest Stevie Wonder recordings are from 1968, notably ‘Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day’, preceding the classic multitracked Clavinet milestone ‘Superstition’ by four years."
