Replicated CD sounds different than the "tape master"

Hi experts.
Im new in this mastering realm.

Should replicated CDs sound different than the DDP master? and if so, how different?

What do you answer to a client that was happy with the final master but unhappy with the replicated CDs? The replication house say they did quality checks and everything was performed "as always".

acoustic guitar pickups sounds faded and quiet

Hey guys, I'm not new to recording and mixing. But I've come across a problem with recording my guitar that's been frustrating the hell out of me.

Okay, so first I'll run off the equipment I'm using: . Acoustic Guitar paired with a Seymour Duncan Woody pickup. . Mixcraft 7 . Behringer U-PHORIA UMC22 audio interface

That's it . Now I'll finally get to my problem.

Problem With Auto-Tune

Of course I've heard the argument that instead of reaching for pitch correction with a less than desired performance, you should find a better singer who can sing in tune. For me, seeing as that pitch correction is used in almost all "pop" music nowadays. And I focus primarily on recording "pop", melodyne and auto-tune are two core tools of my studio and buisness.

Hey guys, I'm having a tough time with something and thought this would be the perfect place to ask for help and advice. So about a week ago, I submersed myself in a few intense projects with the focus being on recording and mixing vocals. They went well and I feel confident about the end products.
