That was one on the radar.....

If money is (somewhat) not a factor, check out Elrick basses. Obviously the custom stuff is pretty expensive, but the Standard (Czech built) models can be picked up well-priced and they are very light for what they are generally. Usually around 8 - 8.5lbs

I've pulled the trigger on TRBboy's 8.1lb Sandberg Classic Booster 5...it was to good to let go.
