Depends how it was “fixed” If the pro tuned it to make it sound perfect that’s great. But probably anon got the damage repaired, taking away its charm and character. Of course anon doesn’t even know the difference between these two things.

For $200 they probably didn't change much

Do you play?

[–] Wakmrow@lemmy.world 46 points 4 days ago

You're all over this thread and you're a jackass.

Yeah I play. Yeah I had the shittiest beat up guitar when I was in my youth. I took it all over the world because I didn't care what happened to it. Loved it while I had it and if someone had "fixed it", that would have destroyed what it was to me, jackass.

And yeah now I have "better" guitars and I don't have that 25$ guitar anymore.

If you've been doing it yourself since high school and still haven't figured out how to do it reliably with fully repaired and properly functioning equipment then you're a fucking moron

You don't play string instruments, do you? There's a lot that goes into any instrument's sound, and some of it isn't a matter of tuning. Especially when we talk about electric instruments. Maybe a pickup you installed on your bass has a small defect that introduces some noise into signal and you like the unique sound signature, for instance.

More goes into the sound of an instrument than just tuning and the body being in good shape, so your repetition of this claim that if you can't reproduce any given sound character on your instrument with some tuning you're a "moron" is either reductionist for the sake of trolling or is deeply ignorant.
