Robert: Have you gotten the chassis back yet? You mentioned a friend of yours that knows Dennis and I. Dennis is the 'house' organist for the Buster Keaton Society in Muskegon We meet the first weekend in October closest to Buster's birthday with conferences at the Museum and a silent at the Frauenthal theatre on Saturday night. Starts Friday and ends Sunday afternoon. The organ at the Frauenthal suffered water damage last year and is being rebuilt by Andy Struble with some additions from Hauptwerk and a Paramount sample set. It should be ready by the time of the convention.
The Barton had been a composite of pipes and electronics for years, so this rebuild is replicating what was there with newer technology. Eight ranks of pipes in house left chamber and electronics in house right chamber, which is too small to house pipes.
No, not yet. I expect another 3 weeks or so. If it looks good, I'm ready to send them the tuner chassis and parts. I'll wait with the coil covers.
Yes, I've met Andy. Joel and I are quite familiar with the Frauenthal, and Joel is very familiar with the organ. Don't have anything to do with the restoration, however. I'm not sure what sample set Joel has for his Hauptwerk in his house. He's using an old 3 manual Allen console.
I just bought a E.H. Scott Philharmonic in a Warrington cabinet......I will go get it, as soon as, the fires in Oregon and California subside......I'm mostly a coin-op guy, jukeboxes, slot machines, etc., so I don't know if I'm going to keep the Scott radio or resell it?
