This antique Estey pump organ dates to about 1910 and is constructed of oak. The bellows have many leaks and need to be replaced. However, the Estey reeds sound fantastic and very "pipe like". Once the warmer weather hits the northeast, I'll be taking this baby apart for a full restore. I've enjoyed restoring about 15 pump organs over the years and Estey is always one of my favorites. Excuse my sour notes.....I'm out of practice but this is my favorite hymn.

Good ole pump organ has a nice tonal quality! I'm in an undisclosed location in the NE too! And, snowy weather as well! Always good to play beautiful hymns! Thank you so much for sharing this video!

Wat Hymnal is that in? My hymnal (songs of faith and praise) has a much more bland bass clef, and the version you have is quite a bit more complex and beautiful

Very sweet! We had a built-in pump organ in the house I grew up in.

Oh I can't wait to restore it this fall. Even in this condition the sound is awesome! I just love an old Estey.

I'll hide this comment inside another. I just paid fifteen dollars for one. Its definetly commentary on the times we live in. I believe we can still emerge from the freefall. Stand.

Takes a lot of work but you make it look easy.

Thank you! I'll be sure to post another video after I complete the restoration on the organ. I'm waiting for spring weather so my fingers won't be numb!
