Hi all, I'm a brand new Mandolin owner. I picked up a used Fender from a music store for a song.
When I try to tune it, the lower frets across the strings play sharp, but the higher frets play flat, and it seems to even out around the 4th to 5th fret (i.e. D or E on the A string). I'm just wondering if there is something I can do. I've tried moving and raising the bridge but I don't know that I can get it to tune completely true.
I'm also prepared to accept that maybe the instrument doesn't play true
Thanks all for your insight and the opportunity to ask and learn!
