Masson Music like Music Express has been a fixture on Brisbanes Southside for many, many years. And although its been closed now for a few years I still see quite a few Masson Music violins come into my shop for repairs. One of the nice little things I notice about them is a little message “Unwind your bow” on a small card in the case, as a reminder to young players that bows need to be unwound when you are finished using them. A nice touch John!
John Masson was kindly to a *cough* young luthiers apprentice when he was just getting started, introducing me to a few of the wholesalers and occasional gifts of bits and pieces useful to a luthiers workshop. Thankyou John
