Scale Design
The original Mason & Hamlin string scale design was created and developed by Richard W. Gertz during the Boston era at the turn of the century. This scale design was heralded for the harmonic warmth and sonic power it made possible. It is the same scale design used in new Mason & Hamlin pianos.
