2004-10-30 - Restored by Andover 1978-79. -Database Manager
2007-09-27 - Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- Housed in a Paladian-style case at the front of the room. Originally faux-grained to look like rosewood. Some changes have taken place over the years. The case was painted white. The original 20-note pedalboard was replaced with a crude 27-note pedalboard. A stopped wood bass was added to the originally tenor C compass Great 4' Flute. And some revoicing was done. The Swell Bass is un-expressive and oddly located at the bass end of the Great chest. -Database Manager
