John Brombaugh (1937-) is an American organbuilder.

After working at the Baldwin Piano Company developing analog and digital organ technology[Citation needed], he apprenticed with Charles Fisk, Fritz Noack, and Rudolph von Beckerath. After this, he formed John Brombaugh & Co. in 1969, originally in Ohio before moving to Eugene, Oregon.

Brombaugh’s engineering skills are complemented by a scholarly interest in historic instruments, and he has been a pioneer in creating organs incorporating historic visual, tonal and mechanical principles, mainly derived from north European Renaissance and Baroque practices.[1]
