Hohner Pianet

Avg price: $907.35

Manuel played a Hohner Pianet throughout the 1970s with The Band.

This site contains additional info and pictures regarding Manuel's use of the Pianet:

I think that, of the albums I have (Music from Big Pink, The Band, Stage Fright, Cahoots, Rock of Ages, Moondog Matinee, Northern Lights-Southern Cross, and The Last Waltz), the Pianet appears in only four songs: "King Harvest (Has Surely Come)," "Caledonia Mission," "Get Up Jake," and "The Shape I'm In" on Rock of Ages. (The Pianet has an effect applied to it for "King Harvest (Has Surely Come)" and "The Shape I'm In," ostensibly the Mu-Tron.)

World Instruments used by Levon Helm on Rock Of Ages (Expanded Edition)

Mandolins
