Many thanks to the experts who take time from busy schedules to post here.
I acquired a classical mandolin for my son to play in a mandolin orchestra (pics attached). While it is a fine mandolin, the action is extremely high going up the fingerboard. The instrument is playable in the first position.
It's going to be 2 weeks before I can leave this with a shop for a set-up.
Quick question: In the interim, I've been wondering if this bridge type is going to have to be completely replaced, or if the bridge should be preserved and lowered.
Any insights, and your thoughts about what should be discussed with a luthier are welcomed.
Many thanks again for your time!
Kind regards, Todd
