I phoned the seller this morning and he told me the organ has been bought by someone in Italy, so at least we can hope it will have a good home.

N&B Trombas are far more pleasant

Marine ply is an intriguing material - though I cannot comment on its suitability for use in organ pipes!

Hi
I have never been totally satisfied with the sound produced by Quinted 32s, often they Quint is derived from the Bourdon which is often far too loud. I recently played a small organ with a synoptic spec as follows; 16, 10.2/3, 8, 5 1/3, 4, all derived from the one Bourdon unit. The 10.2/3 was useless and certainly did not produce a realistic 32 sound.
I have heard of, but never some across, organs which have a 32 the lowest octave being quinted off a seperate octave of Quint pipes, these standing on their own chest and voiced quietly to provided the needed 5th. Does any member know of any places where this has been done?
Best wishes
Barrie
