The New Royal Classic III

The New Royal Classic III, the first digital organ that exactly reproduces the sounds of a traditional pipe organ at a fraction of the price.

A typical installation, as seen at left ,consists of a three manual, 50 rank digital organ (specifications below) is installed at St Thomas the Apostle RC Church, which is located at 35 Adams Place in Delmar, NY (near Albany). It is a full RCIII installation and is available to be played and heard by appointment.

WICKS is the ONLY pipe organ company which has authorized it’s name to be placed on a digital instrument because the pipes sampled for the instrument are all WICKS-voiced pipes. The WICKS American Classics are available for between $49,000 and $59,000 (barring unusual installation or acoustic costs). (Prices subject to change after January 30, 2009). Prices include individual voicing of the instrument to the acoustics of your facility and a ten year warranty.

It is a superb example of how a fine reproduction of true organ pipe sound can be had at a very low price!

We emphasize the quality value as that is a WICKS goal for all its customers, the best you can afford with no compromises at a given price level.

The Royal Classic is designed so that you can add real pipe ranks at any time your budget allows to add to the quality of the organ’s sound.

A notable example of how this can be done is installed in the First United Methodist Church in Oswego, NY (one hour north of Syracuse).

Specifications include using 5 ranks of real pipes (two Swell reeds, three Great principals and a Pedal 16 ft open wood of 32 pipes!) plus their original set of chimes.
