You're absolutely right, my Swedes, Chinese or Sweden made are all over 9 lbs.Was just thinking my Viking needs some lovin'.
I picked up a Swede in a guitar shop one day. Heaviest guitar I've ever hoisted.
The Viking was the heaviest guitar I owned for awhile. It and my bass weigh the same.... both about 6 1/2lbs...... Ibanez bass, for a bass it's pretty light. Then I bought the Strat with the Ash body. New winner at over 7lbs. But got nuthin' even close to 9. In fact it takes my Ovation and G400 combined to make 9lbs.You're absolutely right, my Swedes, Chinese or Sweden made are all over 9 lbs.
I had a Honda exactly like that back in Indiana. The day I sold it to my first call cellist, in prep for moving to CA, was one of the happiest days of my life.Playing that beats the dickens out of playing this. Two hours of blowing snow, which included a 15 minute pit stop for minor repairs.

Obviously because you didn’t need it anymore for blowing snow. But they’re darn reliable. Sits for 6-9 months. Starts 1st or 2nd pull every winter. Got a Honda push mower. Same story. Totally reliable as long as you don’t nail a stump and bend the crank.I had a Honda exactly like that back in Indiana.

Oh, I know, it was a great machine. I wouldn’t have sold it to a friend if it wasn’t. But we moved to a snow-free house with no grass lawn, so my days of pushing an internal combustion engine around the yard are done.Obviously because you didn’t need it anymore for blowing snow.
