Skinner organ restored under the supervision of parishioner Jonathan Ambrosino, in collaboration with Joe Sloane, and Ortloff Organ Company. "The Skinner will be restored with no tonal or mechanical changes, save the addition of an enclosed high-pressure Tromba playable from the Choir and Pedal, using vintage Skinner pipes. The organ's elegant console will be restored with no changes, including the retention of the original electro-pneumatic switching and combination action." <i>Ortloff Organ Company web site</i>

Updated through online information from Nicholas Gray. -- I am the Senior Warden of the Parish of All Saints, Ashmont in Dorchester, Massachusetts. The Parish of All Saints purchased Skinner Opus 708 around a year ago. The organ has been removed from that church and is currently safely in storage in our church basement (in pipe trays and a humidity controlled room). We are in the process of restoring Opus 708, under the supervision of our parishioner, Jonathan Ambrosino. Opus 708 will be installed in the Parish of All Saints once the organ's restoration and the building restoration project, both currently underway, have been completed.
