    Or he liked that it was his guitar that he salvaged with his own hands.

        Tell me you’re missing the point without telling me you’re missing the point

        I have a friend with guitars he uses for specific songs. This isn’t even weird for musicians, let alone artists in general.

        If someone took my guitar and had it adjusted by someone else to meet standard industry sound specs I’d be pissed. It’s not just a guitar, it’s my hobby and something I have put a lot of time into to get the specific tone, tension, and sound that I’m looking for. Especially if they paid 200 bucks to have it done, you could pick up a beater guitar, an amp, a synth, or even a used drum kit for that much.

        It also just crosses a certain line of respect for someone’s art and personal space. It’d be like if someone was working on a painting and you snuck it away to have it finished by a commissioned artist. That’d be shitty and disrespectful.
