The board on the middle is a bent kids drum machine. Since the barbie has two inputs the keys go into one and the bent drums go into the other. Makes for some wicked modulation between the two. I have recently added a bunch of different sized holes to the top and put led's on the inside and bottom of it. It is much more athetic looking. It still has more work though. Glad y'alls like it. I have three of them I have done now. This one, a baby grand, and a mini one I found for free at the auctions in Iowa City. This is the very early version of this piano that I did.

The one i found is in pretty bad shaped, a lot of warped wood needs replaced, but i'm hoping to get it up and running in the next couple weeks. Thanks for the post!

I don't recognize the small board in the middle of the piano in question as being one of her internal organs. The only thing I could think it might be is the mixing board but it is neither the right shape nor wired to the main Barbie board in the right location to be such.
