| | Need for Speed | | Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: Austin, TX | | | It weighs 9.5 pounds and there are no issues.
There is some finish wear above and below the neck pickup (anchor points).
Some of the black has worn off the knobs.
The frets are good and the neck is set up almost straight w/ a low action.
This thing is a tone monster and I'll hate to see it go.
