Do you want polite or do you want sincere?


My Custom Shop LP Custom; it weighs a little over 10 pounds. It's not
to bad to play standing with it for a while, but it gets to be a bit
much after an extended period of time. Ideally, I like a guitar
that's around 7 or 8 pounds; much lighter than that and they don't
feel right to me like they're going to fall out of my hands or break
or something. I like a little bit of heft so it feels substantial.

I agree. I've grown accustomed to the weight and most guitars feel
like toys in comparison.
