Fret Nation is the vision of Jason Mendelson and his wife Lara Hansen. Using Jason's knowledge of strings and accessories for Bass and Guitar and Lara's experience in design and all things internet, they set out to change how you buy gear.
After High School, Jason had a tough decision as to where to attend college after receiving scholarship offers from various colleges around the country. He decided to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston Massachusetts. While at Berklee he changed his major to Music Synthesis and this took his musical career in many different directions. He did music for Video Games, Twix Commercials, and Dance Music for Drum N' Bass and Break Beat artists on his own record label as well as other labels. He also took some time off of school at Berklee to work on a side project with a Slipknot Guitarist where he co-wrote and played bass on Vanilla Ice's Bi-Polar album.
Lara Hansen is a designer and web developer with over 10 years experience. She has always had a love for music and arts, singing for several years in a band, studied the music business and eventually got an internship at universal music eventually moving to web and promotional design for music artists, and working for some top advertising agencies.
