Tony Lalonde comes from a family of inventors. His father, who held several patents for musical accessories, enjoyed a long career as a retailer in Minnesota. Tony and his brother started music stores in California in conjunction with Tony expanding the family’s line of patents and innovative products. Tony opened his first music store in 1976 and later formed Player’s Products. The company gained recognition in the early days for its unique methods for displaying musical products and accessories such as a spinning rack that was custom designed to fit their products.
