Just out of idle curiosity, I've just filled a bored moment by weighing my working basses:
 
	 
 
	Ibanez BTB six - 10lbs 6oz
 
	Sire V7 - 10 3
 
	P bitsa - 10 3
 
	Wal Pro 2E - 10 2
 
	ska Jazz - 10 1
 
	Shuker - 9 7
 
	Thunder 1A - 9 7
 
	fretless Ray - 8 14
 
	 
 
	No surprise that the biggest bass is the heaviest, but a couple of surprises. The T1A feels far heavier on a strap than it is, and the Shuker feels lighter. Perhaps it's to do with the balance? The Shuke is perfect, while the T1A neckdives like a bastid.
