Used Organs

When installed at First Presbyterian Franklin, TN

Milnar Organ Available from First Presbyterian, Franklin, TN. We originally installed this

organ in what is now called the Historic Presbyterian Church in downtown Franklin, TN

in 1978. A platform was built over the Choir to house the instrument. The space for the

instrument was small and the stop list was limited. When the First Presbyterian Church

moved to its new location we were able to work with the architects from the beginning

of the design process. Baird Dixon of Nashville was very receptive to our suggestions.

We ended up with a very acoustically live room with the organ above and behind the

Choir, on the central axis of the room. We totally re-designed the organ both esthetically

and tonally. The curved façade incorporates a new fifty-six note Pedal Principal and a

new 8' Great Principal. We increased the Mixture to III ranks and added a new 8' Great

Trumpet that extends to a full-length 16' Trumpet in the Pedal. The new capped Oboe in

the Swell has a very warm sound. The console was enlarged and updated with multi-

level solid-state memory. We had room under the organ floor and used it for the

blower, tremolo and pneumatic action swell machine; resulting in a very quiet

operation. Because of the organ location and the hard surfaces throughout the room,

this modest size instrument has a commanding presence. Asking $200,000 intalled

Roy A. Redman\George Kilgen & Son

Roy A. Redman tracker organ, 1987 opus 52, II manuals 13 ranks. The original builder was George Kilgen & Son CA. 1907. In 1987, the organ was re-configured to make room for a new Great IV Mixture. A new 8’ Rohr Flute replaced the original Great 8’ Melodia. In the Swell, the 8’ Violin Diapason was replaced with a new 8’ Trumpet. A new 2’ Principal was installed replacing the 8’ Celeste.

New casework, in the Kilgen style was added to the sides. All pallets were re-leathered and all trackers were replaced with aluminum. A new ceiling for the Great division helps to project the sound of the entire organ. The pump handle was removed prior to the 1987 re-configuration. The end result is an organ that is capable of playing most types of music instead of being confined to the romantic period.

1957 McManis Organ, No. 36

The organ was originally built in 1957 for William Weaver of Decatur, GA. At one time the organ was a practice

instrument at Macon College (now named something else having merged with another college. We acquired the

instrument from The Lutheran Church of the Redeemer in Macon, GA when they decided to renovate their

sanctuary and purchase a larger instrument. The organ has been in a private home in Tuscaloosa (1997‐2006)

and now in Birmingham.
