Is 8 lbs heavy for a Mustang Reissue?

Mine is 8 lbs and I thought that seemed pretty normal, but several people have said theirs are 6-7 lbs. Is mine a tank?

i never had or played a RI but i've had several vintage originals, and they were always around 7 lbs or even a little less.

If it makes you feel better there's a 10 pound Mustang in the classifieds.
