Gassed for one for a bit, the quality on those is really good. But I'm kind'a in my will not buy another Chinese guitar phase right now.

I like your style, Muddy. I'm GAS'ing for a Yamaha SG 1000 / 1500 / 2000 right now myself...

That's what I'm afraid of... Played a Les Paul Traditional over Christmas that I really liked, so I get the benefit of HEAVY. And I love the late 70's MIJ quality and vibe. Plus, them horns.

I've played one once actually it was Henry Gross's guitar
and it was HEAVY but it sure sounded cool
Les pauls are are kind'a like strats were you have to go through them.. and the new ones are all hollowed out so they just don't work the same.. those Yamahas are thicker than a LP AND have a chunk of brass under the bridge for that 70's super sustain love'n feel'n

Yeah, I hear that. There's an older 1500 on ebay and a slightly newer 1000 on the local Craigs right now for comparable prices. Leaning towards the 1500 for the brass sustain block (and I like the color a little better too... Black on the 1500 vs. burst on the 1000. No maple cap on the 1500's either I don't think which might make it mellower tone-wise which I like.)
So yeah, how about them Hagstrom baritones!

~9.6 lbs... About the same a Peavey T-60. Hefty for sure. And I think Les Paul Traditionals are around 8.6-9 lbs.

That isn't all that bad really a lot of basses are about that, my BC rich acrylic is a bit more. Those Hagstroms on the other hand are really light, lighter then either of my hollow bodies.
