Just to offer a differing opinion, I’d move it along to someone whose hand it fits. There was a time when there were so few quality mandolins that if you found a good one you had to make it work. Nowadays, there are just too many good alternatives available.
P.S. I too had a Mr. Jenkins for a music teacher!
