DETAILS
This instrument is: ExtantandPlayable in this location
The electrical issue with the organ has been repaired. The cause was later found to be defect in the upgraded MIDI system.
Colton Barber on October 2nd, 2023:
The organ is currently experiencing electrical issues. The cause is unknown. The connection from the console to the pipes is sometimes lost and will glitch or "lag." This can happen quite often depending on the day. The organ is currently playable if you are brave.
Andrew Scanlon on May 11th, 2020:
As of 2018 the organ is extant, playable, in good condition, and in regular use. The company "Barger and Nix" from McDonald, TN had updated the organ's mechanical state including a very small memory system and added one stop (oboe). The entire organ is enclosed with the exception of the Great Open Diapason, which provides most of the instrument's power for leading hymn singing. Small but lovely organ.
