Can't thank you enough for the book, Rob. Very thorough and useful. Everyone should read this before buying a mandolin or doing a set up. Great stuff!
Just got the ebook. I'm amazed at how detailed it is! Already learning a lot. Thanks so much, Rob!
Thank you very much Rob. Wonderful job and very useful.
Hi Rob, I got your book a while ago, but my beater Rogue is at my Mom's house in Florida. I'm averaging a trip down there every 8 weeks or so, I got the files and feeler gauges this summer, the sandpaper this past trip and I made sure the bridge footing was OK. Next trip will be sanding down the bridge saddle to proper height. At the rate I'm going, the nut will get done next spring, but it's going. Thanks for such a good reference! Can't wait to finally get that mando playing well.

Thanks Rob! Lots of great info here!
Is it possible I filed down the nut too much (after getting the slot height correct). The top e string sometimes seems to pop out of its slot.
Rob, thanks for the great book and your responsiveness! I'm looking forward to setting up my new RM100A using your recommendations.
Rob, I'm pleased a jam acquaintance gave me your name. I switched from banjo to mando about a year ago. I eventually bought a Rogue not knowing what to expect, but by golly it was a fine novice instrument. It needed a strap, however. I wanted one that was very flexible and not too wide. There was a leather dealer not too far from me that sold me a piece I could have made 5 straps out of, for the princely sum of $7.50. So this whole endeavor has worked out for a very affordable entry-level outfit.
Your setup book will be a fine addition, and I will be able to get the best out of the Rogue until it's time to upgrade.
Thanks and a joyous holiday season to you, Rob.

Received Robs eBook and it is exactly what I needed to get set up. I appreciate the great detail and information! Thank you Rob!
Love the thread bumps! Still free and easy to get. Just email me at rob.meldrum@gmail.com and ask for a copy. Please put Mandolin Setup in the subject line.

Rob sent me my copy last weekend. I've read it but yet to take the plunge. Written very well and he explains things so a monkey could understand.
All the help I've gotten here has been great! Excellent forum.
