Wurlitzer Pot Metal Piano Valves
By Andy Struble
Hello friends, Another new project is rolling through our workshops.
It is a late '20's vacuum piano for a large Wurlitzer organ. The valves
on the stack control 4 pneumatics each and are made of pot metal.
At this stage in the game the valves are tight and work quite well;
however, since pot metal is cursed with its own eminent self destruction,
I wonder if there were enough of this style of valve that someone may be
making new replacements? Does anyone have a suggestion? Or a source?
Thanks all.
