Thank you for your reply Mr Davis. Do you have contact details regarding the St Luke's organ? I contacted the Diocese of Worcester last year about this organ. They confirmed it had already been sold, but not to whom.

Thank you both for your information. I really appreciate your interest and useful comments. 

I have no idea how many redundant Compton Diaphones are out there. For all I know they may be as rare as hen's teeth. I suppose only time will tell.

I too have grown to like Diaphones, although I have only come across examples by Compton.  I rate his highly as a most useful pedal stop bringing great depth and richness to the pedal line.

Thank you.

Dear Terz,

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I wasn't aware the Worcester Diaphone was still there. I imagine it may be listed.

Not wishing to sound pedantic, I thought that rank was by Hope-Jones...? I'm particularly looking for a Compton Diaphone. Compton often put one on his theatre organs and there's one on his organ at Derby Cathedral too.

Regards,

Vox Celeste

Can anyone help me locate a redundant Compton Pedal Diaphone?
