Yes - that's definitely a conversation worth having.
I've just ordered myself an XLR cable and plan to practice through a pa v soon.
Cover songs ... so lloking for / needing a range of tones ... maybe built around one 'core / default / go to' setting
can we continue in the Zoom G3 thread?

There are plenty of combos that are more than heavy enough to hurt you, but only have a top handle....crazy. Mind you some heads are also too heavy for a safe one handed lift.
Even having side handles doesn't alleviate the risk of an injury if something is heavy.
Warming up for 10 minutes or so will minimise the risk of an injury, but who's got time for that? Even a fit person, using correct lifting techniques can get a back injury quite easily...the human back isn't designed for it! Add a bit of machismo into the equation and well....:)

The Bluesbreaker is like that....not mega heavy, but tall and awkward to lift into a car.
The one I get most problems with is the Ampeg SVT head...probably because I get a lot of them in! It's just so heavy, that no matter how well prepared you are, it's a massive strain on your frame and things pop! Clearly a 2 man lift, but working on my own, it's awkward.

Yeah my Genz Benz Black Pearl (2x12) only has the one handle. I think it's 32kg or something crazy like that. I could barely get the thing in and out of the box and into my guitar room, let alone think about carrying it anywhere )
