Re: Smelly mandolin solutions?
Lots of instruments that have sat around in their cases, often in attics, for 50+ years get a distinctive odor. I (more or less) enjoy it as an indicator of "vintage," but others may not.
There are also preparations that can mask odors, but then you're left with the perfume they contain. Tradeoff.
