I no longer have this, but what a GREAT guitar! 8 1/2 lbs too.

I had to sell it to pay for my 52 goldtop. The neck shape was exactly like on my 52! Medium fat, but more "C" shaped than "D". I miss it!

Just a hair over 8 lbs, super comfy C neck, amazing tone. Looks like nearly no flame from some angles, super flamed from other angles, and changes with the light.

NICE!!!!!!!

That's what I love about "Patty Lou". She has these insane moving curls from one angle to another and then from the bottom she has virtually nothing. Spectacular.

dont have this one anymore, but she sure was great! instantly recognizable by the small knot by the bottom and the mineral streak. GREAT neck on that one too, and light!

Here's my '01 darkburst. Bought from a Forum brother, weighs well under 9 lb., ********s & RS kit. Big thick neck, just like I like them.
