Gibsons’ been lacking so much lately anyway; they charge so much for a guitar that can barely stay in tune (at least for the one’s in the last decade). Brands like Harley Benton have been squashing them for dirt cheap for the last few years.
Not to mention they also just get gross, and can fuck up your fretboard too. Every string change sesh is also an opportunity for me to clean and condition the fretboard.
You keep your strings in better shape with string conditioner/cleaner if you’re using steel / nickelwound /nickel though
You definitely don’t play enough, or your strings a gnarly and should be replaced anyway by now dude lol
Edit: I change my strings every few months
As everyone said, FOSS is the way to go for all of your concerns, and most likely won’t be paying a dime.
A non-FOSS alternative for video edits is Davinci Resolve; there’s a free version that is absolutely amazing. Discovered it when looking for an industry standard platform that runs natively on Linux.
Its pretty much just like Adobe Premiere or Final Cut Pro. The non-free functions have so far not felt necessary because of the multitude of free plugins that could be used for the rare occasion I definitely need something that’s otherwise behind a paywall.
