I guess there are enough in existence for those that want them (and not a digital recreation). An electro-mechanical remake would maybe not be any cheaper than a restored original, and might lack (imaginary) mojo. There's a lot less going on inside a Rhodes piano.

I guess you are in North America, which is probably the only region in the world where this is the case. Here in Australia you can get a Hammond from the US but you have to pay close to 5 grands just for shipping. Back when I was in Europe it was similarly hard to get one.
