I've seen comments on the forum about the Sierra lap steel being heavy. How much does it actually weigh?

Too Heavy to use with a strap like a dobro unless you're really big.

Bob, the weight for C6th would probably depend on whether there is a G or an E on top...

A henway is about 6 or 8 pounds.

I earnestly think a hemming way is in the same ballpark as an old man and the C6th.

OK,
I heard Forumite J Lampert is selling a guitar to a TV presenter...
The steel that J-eff's got fits Geraldo...
