Just got my copy from Rob yesterday - wow! Amazing resource - thanks for your generosity
Saw this was an old thread and wasn't sure I'd be getting a response, but Rob replied the same day and sent me his e-book. I've got a free, inexpensive mandolin and working through this book will be a great way to learn about the instrument and make it more playable while learning as a beginner. Thanks, Rob!
Thank you, Rob, for your generousity!!

Thanks for the great information in your well produced book!
Got it Rob!
Thank you!
Hi Rob,
I want to thank you for the book! I'm pretty excited to get it and start messing around with a Rogue mandolin that I am purchasing specifically to just to work on. I have put "back together" a couple of ukuleles that I received that were damaged, and had some fun with that project, so I'll see if I can improve a low end mandolin using your book. Again, Thanks!
Thanks again Rob - I had a copy previously, but it was on a hard drive that got trashed, so another is great. Max
Thank you Rob for the ebook! Lots of great info.
Rob kindly sent me a copy of his book last week. There was far more detail than I expected. I found the suggestion of making homemade nut saws extremely helpful.
I’ve been playing a cheap imported mandolin my sister owned. Lowering the nut helped immensely. Looking forward to going through the rest of the process new strings arrive.
Thanks again Ron for your hard work and generously shared knowledge!
This is extremely well thought out and documented. I am quite grateful for all the effort that Rob has put into creating this document. I've had my Kentucky KM-150 for several years and taken it to luthiers who have done nothing but make things worse. With Rob's concise approach and almost zen-like focus I feel confident enough doing the setup properly on my own . . . there's a lot here I could apply to other stringed instruments for sure. Sincer thanks to Rob Meldrum for making this eBook available and free for the reading. I've printed a hard copy to reference and absorb the information.
Another thanks to Rob for the Ebook.
What a great resource.
As my first post on Mandolincafe, I would like to thank Rob for his generosity and tremendous knowledge he has provided!!
Thank you for the book Rob! Absolutely packed full of everything you need!
Hello Everyone, Just a note to bump up this thread, and say I received a copy of Rob's "How to set Up a Mandolin" guide. As everyone before me has mentioned, his guide has a wealth of information in a well organized format. I'm looking forward to putting it to use on my previous mandolin. If i can get that in working order i'll be passing it on to someone in need.
Many thanks to Rob for, what i gather, is at least a decade of knowledge sharing is this area.
thanks
David
