Since it has two necks and head stock it would be a little heavier than a more common guitar and it also had a bit of electronics which would add to the weight, but it was about the thickness of the usual dreadnaught. One side had a spruce top and the baritone side was of some type of cedar. It was around Thom's neck when I visited with him and I never had the chance to touch it. I suspect the price was the heftiest part.
