C.B. Fisk, Inc. is a Gloucester, Massachusetts, USA based company that is involved in the manufacturing and service of organs.

The company was begun by Charles Brenton Fisk in 1960. He led the company until his death in 1983. His company has built organs in 23 different U.S. states, as well as one in Switzerland (the largest pipe organ ever built in the United States, though not the largest in the world) and two in Japan.

Over 90 organs have been produced by the company. The Fisk company only completes a handful of instruments each year, because the company concentrates on mechanical action (tracker action) instruments.
