I am setting up this blog on the 1st of February, but don't expect to contribute to it until I start the rehab project in a couple of months.
Last fall I bought a 1867 vintage J Estey reed organ. The case is immaculate and it plays well enough that you can recognize the music. It will need to repaired internally, but I expect that it will be a superior instrument when I am done. The only reference that I have is "The American Reed Organ" by Robert Gellerman, a comprehensive bible on this species of instrument.
When I am ready to start I will put up some pictures and links to some videos of me playing it.
