  Having had some time with the Curbow on a strap, it's a lot lighter than I first thought, and very comfortable to play even when quite high up on a short strap length.

  Bathroom scales, bathroom scales!!!

  Fair enough
  
  I started a discussion on Basschat and there's been some interesting responses so far. One that has piqued my interest is the Yamaha RBX4 A2 - which seems to come in at a flat 7lbs - full scale, full size body - J style pups and FLASHY LIGHTS!!!!
  
  I do need a J in my collection but can't bring myself to buy a Fender - I've hated every one I've played so far. 
  
  Hhhhhmmmmmm....

  The RBXs definitely are lightweight, hence the comparison to my RBX270.

  Yeah the a2 is some magic trickery with soft and hard woods...
