cashcow said:How heavy is too heavy? Just saw a Bacchus on eBay and it weighed 10 lbs 6 oz - little hefty for me. What's wrong with a Lester that's between 7.5 and 8.5?
The below is from my own personal experience & is for carved top Lesters.
I have told several folks, and for quite some time that (generally) my better sounding Lesters are usually in the 8.5 lb. to 9.25 lb. range.
My best ones usually run in the 8.75 lb. to 9.0 lb. range.
There have been a few that are outside of these weight ranges that are pretty good too but very few ..............
I currently have a Bacchus BLS-120S @ 8 lb. 14 oz. & a Bacchus BLS-59 @ 8 lb. 13 oz. & they are both awesome
