SUMMARY:
8' Gedeckt/Koppelflöte 12 stopped wood, 12 capped Hoyt metal,
25 Koppelflöte Hoyt metal, rest open
cylindrical spotted metal
4' Gemshorn 49 spotted metal, open tapered
NOTES
Unit organ of two ranks; compared to other Wicks organs of this type,
there appears to be no 16' octave for the Gedeckt/Koppelflöte rank for
the Pedal 16' Subbass, which would normally be offset on the floor
behind the main chest. This may have been prepared for, but never
installed.
