[Important Announcement] Temporary Suspension of Operations Due to Mas Hino’s Recovery

We sincerely thank you for your continued support and interest.

Mas Hino recently sustained an injury due to an unexpected accident. After undergoing surgery, he is now fully focused on recovery and rehabilitation.
As a result, all production and operations are currently on temporary hold.
We will provide an update once we are ready to resume activities.

We also apologize to those who may have tried to reach Mas via phone or text. Unfortunately, his phone was lost during his hospital transfer, and he currently does not have access to it. Given his present condition, he is unable to respond directly at this time.
Should you need to get in touch, please contact us through the contact page on the MAS HINO NYC website.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and continued warm support during this time.

MASIQUE CORE | Edition Zero — June 30

This hand-drawn sketch was created by Mas Hino in 2018,
as part of a MAS HINO NYC project.

Seven years later, it became one of the core references for MASIQUE.

What began as a single drawing now defines the foundation.

Today, June 30, is the final day to order
MASIQUE CORE | Edition Zero.

Each one signed. Numbered. Never repeated.
Every mark finds its meaning, eventually.

MASIQUE CORE Edition Zero — June 30

Edition Zero is the first form to carry the MASIQUE name.

Defined. Signed. Numbered.
Never repeated.

A beginning and its moment — always only once.

It marks the point where a name became structure.
And from here, MASIQUE continues.

This is not a countdown.
It’s a confirmation.
The name MASIQUE now exists.

MASIQUE The Origin

It was the first custom order
under the MAS HINO NYC brand name.

Not made to be ornate.
Made to be played.

The day it was ordered,
it already belonged to the player who still plays it.

Still here.
Still the same.

This is the origin of MASIQUE.

What lives in this bass
is the will to last.

Not just for one player,
but for the next hundred years.
Or more.

📍Still being played by since day one.

A legacy shaped by form, time, and sonic intent.

🔹 Meaning
A fusion of Mas + Unique / Antique / Mystique

🔹 Concept Highlights
✔ Expresses Mas Hino’s philosophy of uncompromising design and sonic form
✔ Echoes Antique, reflecting the enduring value of instruments shaped to last
✔ Resonates with the French word Magique, suggesting the depth and allure of sonic artistry

Why MASIQUE?
1. Timeless Design, Meant to Endure
• “Built to be played, cherished, and passed down — 100 years from now, the next 100 years, and the century beyond.”
• Rooted in over 40 years of hands-on refinement, intuition, and presence
2. A Name That Instantly Connects
• Begins with “Mas,” grounding it directly in Mas Hino’s personal evolution
• Naturally pronounceable in both English and Japanese
3. Elegance & Resonance
• Inspired by Magique, evoking both clarity and mystery
• Not just a name — MASIQUE carries weight, tone, and intent in every line it defines

Before sound, there is resonance.
Before form, there is intent.

MASIQUE is not just about instruments.
It’s about alignment.

Between hand and sound.
Between time and presence.
Between the player, the wood, and the unspoken.

This is not about chasing recognition.
It’s about preserving what endures — and naming what matters.

This is our philosophy.

feel free to DM us anytime.
