    THE DIAPASON • e ue. For those that figured the price tag made buying a out of the question, Rodgers proudly presents the answer. Two answers, in fact, The Rodgers 200. And the Rodgers 205. Both owe a good deal to early 17th and 18th century organ designs, with their emphasis on unity, balance and optimum performance. Both offer such features as lighted drawknobs and wooden keyboards with optional Tracker Touch. Yet since both combine pipes with electronic voices, neither costs anywhere near what all-pipe organs with the same capabilities would. And their sound is breathtaking. To prove you're not dreaming, wouldn't you like to learn more about the Rodgers 200 and 205?
