Welcome to Mason Violins

I’m Ben, a Lexington-based violin maker serving central Kentucky. Have a look at my work below and send me a message to schedule a bow rehair, instrument trial, or repair.

Benchmade Violins, Violas, and Cellos

Instruments and Services

  • I’ve offered rehairs since 2019 after learning from master bow maker Rodney Mohr at Learning Trade Secrets.

  • Regardless of the quality of instrument or your skill level, I’m here to listen and offer sensible recommendations.

Bow Rehairs and Instrument Repairs

  • Starting at $2,500, I purchase and finish violins and violas to the same standard as my own and offer cases and quality student-level bows.

  • Coming soon, I’ll offer cellos that I purchase and finish starting at $6,000.
