I found a store with several R8 01's and was curious to know the weights.I'll ask, but my guess is that this store doesn't have a scale.I could probably buy the guitar I like and weigh it later (with the option of exchanging it for another),but it would be nice to know ahead of time to influence my purchase.What kind of scale do you people use to weigh your guitars?

Scales

1) Get on bathroom scale holding Les Paul.
2) Have wife write down weight of you and Les Paul.
3) Hand wife Les Paul.
4) Have wife write down your weight without Les Paul.
5) Subtract #4 from #2.
6) Resulting sum is weight of Les Paul.

Regards,


McMad
