Instead of starting a blog you probably would have done better to ask these questions in the General section of the forum. Way more people read that. Sounds to me like the nut needs adjusting so I would take it to a music shop with a repairman who is familiar with mandolin set up. Then it can play its best. The Mid Missouri is a high quality USA made flat top oval hole made by Mike Dulak. He is presently making the same mandolins under the Big Muddy name. They are an excellent choice for Celtic, Old Time, and even Classical music. For Bluegrass you want a carved top with f holes for the added "punch".
You may need a set up and have the nut and or neck adjusted.
