    My son has a viola made by "John Masters Columbus, Ohio"

    Is any familiar with this maker? We are pleased with the instrument but I would like to know more about the person who made the instrument.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Glenn,

    I realize it's 18 years later, but I've just found your post about my Great Uncle, John Masters. If you would like more information, I'd be happy to put you in touch with my mother, John's niece.

    All the best,

    Lauren

    Hi Lauren, My aunt played with the Columbus Orchestra and is looking to get in touch with John Masters. I would love to put her in touch with your mother or Great Uncle. Thank you, Erin ([email protected])

    Hi John,
    I found your post on Google. You made a viola for me back in 1982/3. You bought it back from me later and I’m still regretting giving it up. I was in an abusive marriage at the time and my now-ex made me sell it for the money. I’d love to get
    back into playing. Do you ever run across any of your old violas? Take Care, Susan Miller ([email protected])
