Thanks for your interest in our website.  I hope we may be of service to you!  My name is Greg Rister, and I am the founder of Rister Pipe Organs, located in Whittier, California.  Pipe organ work has been a major part of my life.   I first began learning the trade during the 60's and 70's with my father's part time organ repair business, and got hands-on experience with pipe organs during the installation of a pipe organ in our home.  Subsequently, I re-apprenticed for four years with Rosales Organ Builders, Inc., in Los Angeles, and spent 10 years with Pipe Organ Craftsmen in Pomona, a service organization founded by Duane Hanks.  I am a member of the American Institute of Organbuilders, and the American Guild of Organists.

I believe that every pipe organ should be the beneficiary of quality work and high standards.  You should expect nothing less.  We will be pleased to offer a quotation for the work that you need.

Presently, RISTER PIPE ORGANS is in the final phases of a major restoration, including full releatheruing and renewal of components and a complete console rebuild and upgrade for the 4-manual 56-rank Frank Cummings Memorial Organ of Pilgrim Congregational Church in Pomona , California.
