From a list of stops of one famous organ:

# 4 Flute ranks, 16'-2', 16'-2', 8', 8'
Reuter Opus #822

Now if you can't tell a B3 and a Pipe Organ apart, yer deafer than John.

Anyway, he says it sounds like a church organ, in these parts there were Hammond organs in churches, but I never saw a B3.

The loft Organ I used to play every Christmas before they cancelled the thing had a full set of pedals and an octave and a half keyboard at the bottom to a set of chimes with the longest being 8 feet. They sat beside the organ, and I played them a few times and everyone got very excited. The organ broke and I took in a keyboard and the wife had the flute and we played for a memorial service for the Head Masonic Canuck and I played the chimes on the keyboard and everyone was sure I had played
that big organ. Hilarious.
