Time to rebuild your Makin Organ?

Can a Makin organ be rebuilt?This is a question we have from many customers who have one of our beautiful consoles, perhaps built twenty or thirty years ago. The simple answer is yes, especially if a motorised Drawstop console is involved where the economics of a rebuild make the greatest sense.

What is involved? On a case-by-case basis, the following are typical

• total replacement of the computer and amplification systems
• a completely new multi-channel speaker system
• replacement of the keyboards and thumb piston rails
• refurbishment of the existing pedalboard
• replacement of stop jamb panels as required by a new or modified specification
• re-use of current stop solenoids where possible with optional solenoid upgrades
• engraving of new stop heads as required
• addition of new toe pistons as required

For the customer, it is frequently an easy choice where an older well-loved instrument is upgraded to a state of the art organ from their well-trusted vendor.
