Organs wanted / ranks of pipes
June 16, 2010, 04:26:33 PM
Hello all! I am new to this forum. My first post will be a request.
Knowing that there are many redundant organs around I wonder how I can get to find where there might be some redundant pipework. I am looking for some ranks to replace that which was removed some years ago, finish what never was and perhaps enhance an organ!

So what I would really like is a GOOD big fruity Vox Humana - maybe a Norman & Beard or a Father Willis, a good wooden stopped diapason or something like it to replace a wooden Hohl Flute and if anyone knows where there might be some redundant 32s!! I have a magnificent set of stopped pipes of very large scale extending downwards form an open wood 16 to FFF then it's all the same note to the bottom. It would be wonderful to complete this rank.

While I'm on it...32' reeds: are 1/2 length really any good?

Thanks,
F-W.
