Makin Organ Rebuilds

We are delighted to announce the rebuild of a large Makin instrument at the Crown Church in Inverness.

We collected the organ a few weeks ago and provided the congregation with a Makin Thirlmere Drawstop loan instrument whilst all options from a new instrument, a small rebuild or a fully rebuild to a similar size of instrument were considered. Following a meeting of the Session, a major rebuild has now been fully approved and will now proceed with some urgency.

The console is a large Makin drawstop console which allowed us to use the basis of our Windermere 3-53 specification, as designed by Ian Tracey and Keith Harrington, as a starting point and then to fill the jambs with additional useful stops to deliver a truly bespoke instrument.
