Original instrument was a 2-manual Haskell, typical of their work 1915-1930. New chest actions for manuals and some of the pedal. Retained Haskell console: new stop tabs, retaining mechanical combination action. Original Kinetic blower was refurbished and re-installed. Uses an SSLL diode-matrix relay.

This instrument is: Extant and Unknown Playability in this location

Paul R. Marchesano on October 1st, 2025:

The combination action is/was mechanical, and is not a computerized action. The "Consoles" section has this as "Combination Action: Computerized/Digital". Also, all windchests except for the 16' Subbass/8' Bassflote were all-new construction, using electromechanical actions. (The current verbiage could infer the original windchests were reused as shells with replacement note actions.)
