Database Manager on November 9th, 2016:
Updated through online information from Neil Cardew-Fanning. <br>Stoplist taken from console on 27 October 2016. Confirmed with Bill Visscher that is has not been significantly altered to his knowledge. "Gedeckt", "Schalmey", "Koppelflute" & "Basson" are the spellings on the knobs. Some of the Schalmey pipes may have been replaced before the late 1970's with some "adapted" oboe pipes by a firm in Erie, Pennsylvania. Unfortunately, I was unable to access the part of the organ where those pipes are located so I can confirm what I remembered seeing years ago.

Updated through online information from Neil Cardew-Fanning [former organist/choir director, Trinity Parish, Nevada City, California]. -- During the late 1980's through early 1990's, the organ was maintained by organ builder Munetaka Yokota. During that time, he renovated the 4' Principal & Mixture for tuning stability. He also repaired & renovated the 16' Subbass for improved speech and tone.
