• In 1887 Setterquist built a new organ for Näsby Kyrka in Västmanland. It was dedicated on July 24, 1887. The organ had eight stops and an attached pedal. In 1915 it was converted to pneumatics by the same company and expanded into a two-manual organ with fifteen voices. In 1946 the disposition of the second manual was changed. The Basetthorn 8', Voix Celeste 8', Flöjt 4' and Euphone 8' were replaced by new registers: Principal 4', Nasard 2 2/3', Flöjt 2' and Ters 1 3/5'. The Trumpet of the Huvudverk was replaced by a Mixtur 4 chor.
  
• Behind the front from 1887, John Grönvall built a new mechanical organ in 1982. It has twenty registers. Some registers have also been taken from the old instrument.
