No, it's not :) Reed instuments are instruments that you use a piece of wood (a 'reed') on the mouthpiece. You don't put an organ on your mouth, so therfore it isn't a reed instrument. Examples of a reed instrument are; saxophones, clarinet and bass clarinet.

The price that someone will pay for it! This may depend on whether the buyer wants a decorative piece of furniture or whether he intends to play it. Is the instrument in working order? Is it in tune? Try advertising on the web with a photograph and see what offers you get.
A reed organ has "free reeds" much like those in a harmonica. These have no resonators and require little space. A pipe organ uses pipes, which can be categorized in to two groups; Flues and reeds. Flues are simply whistles - no moving parts. reed pipes contain a brass tongue but unlike a reed organ they beat against a flat surface with an opening - the "shallot" upon which a resonator is mounted. The majority of pipes are flue pipes. Many small pipe organs have no reed pipes.
Ummm...oboe, ocarina, and organ. Oboe! It is a double reed instrument which I play!

Oh, dude, your Kimball Elka EP-8 organ is like this vintage keyboard instrument that produces sounds by electrically generating vibrations with its tonewheels and stuff. It's got keys you can press to make music, and it's probably a cool addition to your collection if you're into that retro vibe. Just don't ask me to play it, I'm more of a kazoo kind of guy.
