Re: What should I do with that mandolin?
The action is high, but even considering some distortion from the camera angle, when I "measure" the length from the nut to bridge (in pixels), and divide by two, what it looks like to me is that the bridge is setting as if you used the intonation at the 13th fret, not the 12th. I counted them a couple of times, and maybe I'm wrong, so here's a picture and the scale and 1/2 of that shown in orange.
Assuming I am not completely, temporarily, off-planet, setting the bridge location using the 12th fret will help with the others. (I checked against a scale image and while there's some quibble with a fret or two, I don't think the slotting is the problem.)
