The Organ Forum

Here is the stoplist for the organ which is the subject of the thread "Where to find the builder". I do not have pipe counts on the stops, since the last time I was actually in the organ loft (which is really the chamber for the organ) was about five years ago. I also did not write down couplers (I don't know if this is standard practice or not). I'm interested in opinions on this instrument, I like it, but want to know what others on this forum think.

Once you can tie your arms into a pretzel and your legs into a knot, you've got it under control

Hi again-

I see, this, then, would explain why the Holtkamp Co. has no record of this installation, but, unfortunately for my interests, does not explain the origin of this instrument (besides 2909 Meyer Ave. in Cleveland).
