    Question Live in South NJ looking for a thorough tech to set up new mando

    Hello I am new to the site and I am looking for a honest - thorough person to set up a new Michael Kelly Legacy Dragonfly Acoustic-Electric Mando.
    I live in South NJ so any help would be appreciated.

    I know of someone, but can't think of his name right now (Ugg!!!). As soon as I find out I'll send you a PM. He has a great reputation.

    Hi Parkwood,

    Contact Joe Todaro at Todaro's Music in Lansdowne (just outside Philly, real easy to get to). He's got someone who does set ups for him. I haven't used his set up service, but Joe's a real mandolin enthusiast and is Director of the Philadelphia Mandolin and Guitar Ensemble. If his set up person is good enough for him, I think he must be good. His store's URL is www.worldfrets.com By the way, NFI. Also, it's one of the coolest stores I've ever been in. It's worth the trip just for a look around. It's really everything you imagine a great little independent music store could be.

    Best wishes,

    Bob

    Are you closer to Toms River or Philadelphia?

    Email me at rob.meldrum@gmail.com for my free ebook on how to set up a mandolin. You'll learn a lot and you probably won't have to pay someone to do it for you. Still free to all mandolincafe members. Several thousand have been given away!
