For me, it isn't just about the weight - it's the balance and the way it hangs - where your hands fall comfortably.

This is the honest truth (for me) if you choose to believe it or not.

Anyone else have the same thoughts?

Cheers. :)

Agree 100% - I had to sell a stunning bass that was 7.5lbs because the small amount of neck dive it had was an issue for a condition I have. Yet my 8lbs basses balance perfectly so I'm more comfy on them.

I remember a 5 hour gig with my Mk1 WAL being painful! I don't know what it weighed, but it was significantly heavier than my 76 P bass. That was late 80's when my back was also significantly younger!
