Weight ? 594 vs 594 Semi-Hollow vs 594 HB II

[Frank McNerney]

I thought something like this thread would already be out there - if there is - my apologies - I couldn't find it.

Does anyone have a (general) idea about the relative weights on these 3 594's.

Thanks

Very roughly, on average:
Solid: 8lbs
SH 7lbs
HB: 5.5-6lbs


See dealer websites that list weights: Brian, Moore Guitars, Ish Guitars, Wildcat, Wildwood, Willcutt,...

Yep, this is a good range. All of the 594s that I have owned fit nicely here. I think the heaviest I had was 8lbs 13oz. Singlecut, of course.

And I would add to docteurseb's list one that is not included in your list, the 594 SC which is going to be around 8.5 - 9.5 lbs. My HBII is my daily player because of the 5.6lb weight! I love it long time!!

EDIT: Bodia beat me to it on the SC weight!

Concur all around: 8 / 7 / 5.5-6 lbs for solid, semi, full hollow DC PRSi. Add 0.5 to 1.0 lbs for SC variations.

Using different woods (like in the WL runs) might help lighten that up a titch.

You forgot 3 zeroes at the end of that number!
