Members NITEFLY182 Posted February 17, 2009 Members Share Posted February 17, 2009 The UPS man awoke me quite rudely this morning. But its okay. He had a new toy. I wasn't expecting another gun case like my Blackmachine came in but this is quite fitting for what is inside. I had to pay $400 to get one of these for that guitar but this one was included gratis. A peek And a nice glimpse of the whole deal Body Back Body back Headstock Here is some noodling: hSRD_Oe7Tbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jules-RM Posted February 17, 2009 Members Share Posted February 17, 2009 So, what's the weight of the guitar? I almost bought a 8 string bass back in the 90s with a similar neck, it was way too heavy for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NITEFLY182 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 17, 2009 looks great!i bet it gets cold though Yeah it was cold as {censored} when I unpacked it. Probably a little reckless but it feels no different than wood now that its in the house. There is no radius on the neck but Im getting used to it.

Members NITEFLY182 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 17, 2009 Oh and its a Bastin Sport. A lot like a Bean but they had wood fingerboards. The Pickups are Duncan Phat Cats. The body is one-piece Mahogany and the neck is aluminum. I would guess it weighs about 10-12 pounds. A Couch strap will not suffice for comfort on a heavy guitar like this so I went with the old standby 3" bass strap. Its definitely a huge change from the Esquire.
