2016-04-18 - Updated through online information from R. Joseph Wiessinger. <br>This Reuter Organ contains 67 ranks, not 65 as stated in your description of the organ. The Pedal 8' Gedeckt and the Pedal 4' Clarion are both independent ranks of 32 pipes each. From my information, the church has disconnected the console and they are not using the instrument. I believe it is for sale. -Database Manager
