Wurlitzer Roll Formats
By Gordon Forcier

Hi Everyone, I have been in contact with Matt Caulfield on the roll formats of Wurlitzer and DeKleist and I figured, that if anyone had no idea what the original formats were, I would be glad to share them, so here goes: the formats are as follows:

125 use for styles 103 thru 127
150 use for styles 145 thru 153
155 use for DeKleist Monster only
160 use for DeKleist Mammoth only
165 use for styles 163 thru 168
180 use for style 180 only.
Did you know that Wurlitzer made a 166 and 168 roll format also? Well it's true. The style 166 organ was a 67-key and the 168 was a 69-key organ as well. I think that doing research is fun, don't you think so Robbie? [ Agreed! ]
