    As a long-ago member of the Fret once said, "GAS never sleeps"! Speaking if GAS, how do you like the 72 reissue Tele, Vood? Did you add the Bigsby? Do you know how much it weighs?

    Love it! Full story is here: http://www.thefret.net/showthread.php/22055

    I've had the guitar for over 3 years now. It's a regular part of my church praise band guitar rotation. The Curtis Novak wide-range humbuckers in this guitar give a nice middle ground between single coils and traditional humbuckers--fatter and higher output than the former, but more top end and string definition than the latter. The Bigsby certainly adds some weight, but I don't find the guitar to be excessively heavy. The fact that it's a Thinline certainly helps to compensate for all that extra metal.
