I get a number of e-mails requesting information on WERSI dealers
and where to get repairs carried out. I hope the following
may help. I apologise for any links not working which
could mean that a server is down, rather than that the site is no
longer available.

In 1999 production, hardware and software rights of WERSI
Germany were taken over by Thomas Music
Some of the WERSI range at that time is marketed under
the Thomas Label. Component parts are the same so spares
and software may be obtained from them.

A number of organ tabs & stops for the WERSI analogue
organ series are available from The Electronic Organ Constructors
Society. Part of the ELECTROVOICE stock who were
UK distributers. [see
article by Don Bray] Primarily for use by
their club members, I'm sure anyone in need could make
an offer they could not refuse.

COLIN HOWE
Sadly Colin passed away in July 2007. I first met Colin
when he was working at the Wersi establishment at Purley
inSurrey. A Wersi Organ Specialist, Colin was in the
business of WERSI repair for many years and he fixed
many a WERSI that other engineers claimed were beyond
repair. He will be sadly missed
Sadly Roy passed away on 27th December 2005. Roy did a
lot to promote the WERSI company in the UK. He assisted
in installing the Wersi Louvre, currently playing at the
Blackpool Tower Ballroom. My sympathy goes to his family.
