Hi my gal is mandolin beginner , she shops everytime ahhah
waiting togot a day a good destressed one.
i have a big trouble on my old 95's Epiphone F
i bought this mando from a ebay N.Y seller for approx.150 Us dollars
i had to make some correction on,new tuning machine, bone nut for the neck and finally new ebony saddle..:disbelief:
it cost me a half-arm :cow:
i used to set up from Ghs A60 Bobby Osborne's light medium gauge.
but the big trouble i have is the Neck i have a curve that begins at the third fret
Impossible to play correctly a chromatic scale on 123 or 321 frets , it's hurting your hand !
so the mandolin is very hard to play ,my luthier told me that truss rod had been 'completely thighten'
i've seen this double truss rod on this site

would it be ok to change its truss rod ?
thank so much for all infos
