The critter must have had nearly 1/2 lb of metal on it. Everything from the bridge to the pickguard. There was an 1/8th inch plate of steel underneath the bridge held on by the 1/4 inch bolts that held the bridge in place. Would have been a great guitar for a redneck bar fight. Much stronger than a baseball bat!! Removed huge amounts of wood and all the metal. The wood itself was very good quality and the box sounded very nice after relieving it of about 3 or 4 lbs. of useless weight!! Strange construction if you ask me..
