In 1867, Johan Niklas Söderling built a new organ for Skarstads Kyrka. The instrument had seven stops and pulldown pedals. The pedal compass was eighteen keys (C-f°). In 1949, the organ was restored by the company Nordfors. They removed the Trumpet and installed two new stops: Qvinta 2 2/3' and Blockflöjt 2'. In 1974, the organ was restored by Orvar Smedman (from the company Nordfors & Co.). The Qvinta was removed and repaced by a new Trumpet, and the Blockflöjt 2' was replaced with a new Octava 2'. Smedman also expanded the organ with an independent pedal with three stops and an new pedal board with 30 keys.
