The Coach Haus organ is a three manual Rodgers Providence 900-A organ (MICASKO series), drawknob console with an oak exterior and walnut interior. This Rodgers 900 was a top of the line instrument to begin with and was ordered with many options including lighted drawknobs, solid wood keys, transposer, divided expression, programmable Tutti and Crescendo sequences with LED indicators, note-by-note tuning, toe bolster with 22 toe studs, locking roll top, auto turn-off circuit, lighted music rack and pedal board, engraved stop knobs and couplers, six channel sound, 61-note celestes, expanded flute tremulants, selectable Major, minor & Flemish bells, dual memory combination action, and enough power and sound to fill most large churches.
This organ was retired from service at the Shavertown United Methodist Church, Shavertown, Pennsylvania in 2001. It was installed by Rodgers Organs of St. Louis in the Coach Haus in the spring of 2004 with many new Walker Technical Company speakers and Carver amplifiers to complement the existing Rodgers loudspeakers located in the 22' x 4' x 10' custom sound chamber high in the west wall of the main room. There are Walker echo-antiphonals on the east wall 12' off the floor. With the natural reverberation of such a large space you have to hear it and feel it to believe it!
Rodgers Instruments of Hillsboro, Oregon, is the largest manufacturer of musical instruments for public spaces. Hundreds of churches, as well as civic centers and auditoriums -and at least one garage/museum!- have Rodgers organs installed.
