  • In 1953 A.M. Olieman built a residence organ for Mr D. Weeber in Nieuwe Pekela. It was an organ with electric unit chests. From four ranks (Prestant, Bourdon, Quintadeen and Tertscymbel), twenty registers were derived. The organ is completely installed inside a swell box. The prospect has six pipes, which are not expressive. Mense Ruiter later transferred the organ to a new mansion in Groningen. In 1994 it was transferred by A.J. Opten to the Hervormde Kapel in Tjuchem
  • The organ was demolished in 2021, as it was in a very bad condition and had been damaged by woodworm.
