First Baptist Church
Maryville, Tennessee

1970, Schantz Organ Co., Opus 957

NOTES

The organ is installed in divided chambers on either side of the baptistery at
the front of the room.  There are no visible pipes.  The Choir in on the left
and the Swell is on the right. The Great and Pedal are divided on each side.

The blank drawknob on the Great is intended for a III Scharf. The blank
drawknobs on the Swell are intended for a 4' Cor de Nuit and 16' Basson. The
blank drawknobs on the Choir are intended for an 8' Flute Celeste and an 8'
Solo Trumpet.

The drawknob console is in fixed position at the right edge of the chancel
platform at floor level. Stops are controlled by drawknobs. The combination
action is electric Hold/Set.

This organ replaced a previous two-manual M.P. Möller, opus 7025, built in 1941 and
relocated to this edifice when it was new. It is rumored that some previous
pipework may have been incorporated into the Schantz.

The stoplist appeared in the October, 1967 issue of "The Diapason", page 12.
