'Solo Stab' would be better actuated by a toe stud. A great idea that was used on Pizza organs in the 70's where the second touch could was not restored. Another good use, also with a toe stud, would be 'Accompaniment Stab', placing tuned percussions like Harp and Piano on a stud- operated 'division' for afterbeats. I had that on a theater organ back in the 70's, and it is very effective. I now have two manuals with second touch so it is no longer needed.
Allen already makes the organ you describe...It's the Q311. The TH300 is a scaled down version of the 311 and was designed for those who don't have the space for the larger organs or the the money needed to buy one or both.
Will the option of adding toe studs for sound effects, and possibly presets be added? Also, is there a version with stop tabs rather than toggles? I'd really love to see more!

Very nice! Can you tell me the name of the tune in the background! It's driving me crazy trying to name it. Thanks!!!

Congratulations, Allen. This organ looks great. I already have an Allen 3-manual, so I will be looking for the TH-400!

Very neat, I can't wait to hear sound samples!
