Thanks for the tips Mella. I like the low-tech idea of a small closet with a light bulb. Of course, that would be after we get electricity I've heard vaseline on the back of the mandolin helps protect the wood...has anyone tried that? My husbands's instrument can be purchased on the island I hope, and will prove very useful: a washtub bass.
