Peavey T-40 Weight (Poll)

My T-40 weighs closer to this...

I'm wondering how accurate my scale was. I haven't noticed any of yours weighing as much as mine was on the scale. And it WAS spectacularly heavy. But how likely was it to be like the heaviest one in the world?

I measured mine as thirteen pounds. But I haven't noticed any others that heavy in this post. Was mine really as bad an outlier as that makes it sound? Or was my scale less accurate than we thought it was?

Inquiring minds want to know.
What kind of scale?
 
It was a fishing scale. It had a hook that I put on the string just before the G tuner, and I held it up from the scale with the bass dangling.

But just because it was supposed to be accurate, doesn't really REALLY mean that it was.

Like I said, it was super heavy. But I don't know that it was the heaviest one in the world. I figured five or six people in this thread should have beaten me.

Never mind. I went back and read the whole thread again. The guy right before me had one that was heavier than mine. Mine is no longer the record holder, and is reduced back to merely an enormous annoyance, in stead.

Order is restored in the universe.
