Its a difficult question to answer. A good repair is a good repair and it doesnt have to influence in sound and sometimes not even in value. I tested a Reyes from 1962 a month ago. It has a big spruce splice in the soundboard 100% professionally made. The guitar sounds and plays very well and was sold for 8000,- euros. I cannot say how much it would be worth if it did not have this repair. In general guitarists are very crack paranoid. In the violin world, cracks are common and much more accepted.
