WILLIAM MASON,
I am of the opinion that the Mason & Hamlin pianofortes are first-class instruments in every particular, being of sound and thorough workmanship and possessing a tone full and sonorous, and at the same time, of sympathetic and musical quality. The action is firm yet sensitive, and quickly responsive to the demands of all the varieties of touch employed in artistic and expressive playing.
GEO. W. CHADWICK,
The tone is very musical and seems to improve with use. The action is particularly even and firm, and I have never had a piano which stood so well in tune, which is doubtless due to your improved method of stringing. The piano seems to combine power and beauty of tone to a remarkable extent, and I congratulate you on the production of so fine an instrument.
WM. H. SHERWOOD,
Beautiful instruments, susceptible of the finest grades of expression and shading, and capable of great sonority and power without developing the crashing qualities so frequent in Concert Grands. The large Grand is a success: the action is thoroughly satisfactory and the tone grand.
B.J. LANG,
The instruments seem to me to be remarkable for their carrying tone so to say. A feeling of firmness and solidity all around is at once noticeable. It would seem to me that these pianofortes must prove a credit to you, and solid satisfaction to those who may play upon them.
HENRY HOLDEN HUSS,
