I thought there was somewhere on the cafe where there is a basic set up guide I can point a customer to. I have had a look around and can't find one. Please note he is just looking for a guide on how to position the bridge, bridge height etc, nothing fancy like nut filing and bridge seating. I have told him over the phone but it would be great to have something for him the refer to. TIA.

Here is a link to one of the many discussions about Robert Meldrum and his set up guide. I emailed him years ago and still have a copy of his guide somewhere. Hope this helps.

Hey! I used the e-mail address and sent Rob an e-mail, and he responded with his guide same day!
Thanks to Rob, and to Eric for posting the link.

Hi Rob,
I sent you an ebook request this last Monday (05/24/2021) under the name "sundiegojc". I put more than just "Mandolin Setup" in the subject line, which I hope didn't screw things up.
When you have a chance would you please confirm that you received it?

And thank you again for making this resource available and the YouTube videos too!
