My new old mandolin arrived today. She's an SS Maxwell from the 1930s, in decent condition for an old girl in her 90s. She came with a nice case and some interesting "documentation," too.
I need to change her strings and give her a good wipe-down, and her tuners could use some clean-up. They seem to slip, too. I will begin with the fresh strings and cleaning up the tuners and then see if I still have a problem.
