The manual for the PSR in question states Church ORGAN 16' 2'

Every Pipe Organ, going back centuries, uses this as a description for the pipes of those lengths.

The midi numbers say 33 If I remember, (I just glanced at it). I need not look at the stops on the Grand organs of the world.

E. Power Biggs, the Englishman responsible for the revival of classical organ building in the USA, championed organs of the type in use when the pieces were written, but no doubt in some minds Bach's Four Great Toccatas & Fugues were composed first by a resident of some colony and played best on a 'Hammond' Organ, for it sounds the same as the organ in the Basillica Notre Dame, or the one in Notre Dame de Paris, that grand organ with some 7000 pipes is a mere facade of the one's build by Hammond Organ. Zut Alors.

I do have some great Bach done on period organs, but it's odd, there's not an American organ amongst them.

I'm sure when Yamaha says "DrawBar Organ" in the earlier positions, it is due to the fact that they cannot call it a B3. I guess some enterprising soul should buy up Hammonds and install them throughout France and Germany, for if they sound the same, those folks could pretend those pipes work and save a bundle in refurbishment costs.

Now to dig out Mr. E Power Biggs and get the wife off the opera CD's for a few hours.
