    Default Mandolins near Naples, FL

    Hi Everyone,

    I’m traveling to the Naples area for the holidays and would love to check out any mandolin-friendly stores or check in with a luthier if possible.

    Know of any down there? Marco Island too.

    Nope. FWIW, Key West is only 110 miles away by boat, more than twice that by car. No luthiers, three mandolinists, very little mandolin presence in stores - it's a wasteland. Good luck! May be time to take a break and enjoy other aspects of life.
    But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller

    Ross Teigen used to be the tech in that area, but he has relocated to Hawthorne upstate and I don’t know who (if anyone) has filled the vacuum created by his departure.
