Can anyone tell me a good source for parts for my KIMBALL, MODEL W75, ENTERPRISE, organ? Surely, there are still parts available for it, somewhere.

Remember, it is a 25 year old organ from a company that went out of business. Organ Service Co is probably the best place, but don't be surprised if you have problems with certain parts.</p>

I bet you $100 - erm - better make that 200 pounds, that I can find parts for a 70-year-old radio easier than you can find parts for a 2-year-old television. </P>Comment

Oi! Our exchange rate hasn't gotten that bad - er, yet!</p>
Yes, I'm sure you're right and that you could find them HL, but there is a bit of a 'hole' in organ spares. This was a 1980's organ, and not a particularly numerous one - the organ market was already on the skids by then and big production runs were things of the past. It's the certain parts I'm referring to. Getting hold of a transistor, diode or capacitor (or tube in that old radio) is easy enough, but if you have something 'custom' that's gone, that way well be curtains. Cannibalisation may be the only way.</p>
Anyway, let's hope it's something simple enough and that spares will be available.</p>
