2007-03-18 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This was an instrument Richard Bond built for home use: practice and enjoyment. The console is a used Allen - gutted for pipe organ use. It has a 32-note, concave and radiating "Princess" pedalboard. The pipes are used from various sources. The Salicional is an Echo Salicional and is likely from the Austin formerly at Portland's Second Church of Christ, Scientist - and now located at Faith Lutheran. The organ is prepared for an 8' Voix Celeste, 1-3/5' Tierce, and 8'Trumpet. When Holy Rosary Church and Dominican Priory had a fire in 1994 that essentially destroyed their rebuilt Kilgen, Mr. Bond loaned his home instrument to Holy Rosary for approximately 2 years while a new Bond organ was built for the church. The organ was placed in the rear gallery atop a pedestal of sorts. -Database Manager
