Re: Beginners, how many set up your mandolin successfully on your
I have never don the set up work myself. I kinda liked having a pro do it and always had good comfortable results. Maybe I'm lucky to have decent folks who know mandolins around. It also gave me an excuse to go into their shop and play other mandolins, buy a handful of picks and strings and maybe a book or two.
I think if you want to learn the set up stuff, that's great. I never HAD to learn it all. Changing strings and cleaning my mandolin up are good enough for me.
