Description

1883 Estee Reed Pump Organ made in Brattleborough VT. I bought in February 2016 and restored best i could in march 2016. The wind chest is completely restored with new felts,some wires and bushings. Bellows are in very good shape and operational. It has 61 notes. Most of knobs work some do not work. The VOX  Humana (vibrato sound) was rebuilt but dose not work. This is a 136 year old pump organ looks great and has a nice old pump organ sound. I have also modified it by adding a Lee Silent "Orgavac" suction unit so you can either play by pumping pedals or flip a hidden switch and play without pumping. Pump sticks out the back 6 inches so organ will be out from wall by that much.This vacuum unit was designed for these organs by the (Arndt Organ Supply Company) The main photo is most resent taken 05/11/2019. One photo is my mother playing it. She knows how to play it i do not. She said she used to play one just like it when she was a little girl. Dimensions are about 61" tall,30" deep, 53" wide I have know idea what it weighs. Also i will include the stool that is in main photo. You can also come over and play it yourself before you buy if you like. Just so you know what you are getting. This is pickup only and i will assist in loading. Also  I just added a photo of the added vacuum pump there is no back to this.
Thanks for looking.
