Looks like it's all of a piece and fully functional to me.
His grandfather had it for life, technically. And it still works and is missing nothing, so it might last this kid's life, too.
Your argument is invalid.

But it doesn’t work. OP said that he’d already broken the tuning mechanism and he was planning to “fix it”. He’s going to be quite disappointed when he discovers it’s non-repairable. Take a look at the example image I posted earlier. The tuning mechanism is made of cheap plastic gears. These aren’t user-replaceable, aren’t sold as parts, and are generally so fragile attempting to repair them will cause even more damage.
You’re either irretrievably stupid or you’re arguing for the sake of arguing. Either way, I have no more time for your foolishness.
It’s not BIGFL. Never was. Never will be. Period.

Guess what, sport? The man can speak for himself, and you're the only fool here.
Congrats.
