DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- Reportedly moved here by men from the Orrington church. Original hitch-down Swell mechanism replaced with a crude balanced system at an undocumented time. Prior to the 1962 Noack rebuild, one rank of the Swell III Cornett was missing. The case was also painted white at some time.
Database Manager on October 30th, 2004:
From Foss St. Methodist, Biddeford, ME in 1942 for $99.99. 27-note pedal replaced 25-note pedal earlier; chest and coupler action not extended. Doors on keydesk gone. Altered Noack.
