Can someone tell me the weight of a Troubadour without the bracket band.

Thanks Rick

	Roosterick says: 4/10/2014 9:50:44 AM Mine has a bracket band, it weighs about a ton, but seriously, I just went and weighed it and it weighs exactly 9 pounds. That includes a Shubb 5th string capo, a Schatten pickup, and a Neotech strap. I bought mine used about 20 years ago. I don't know if anything has changed since then.
	tucsonsean says: 6/14/2015 9:06:45 AM Whatever the weight, I know mine's heavier than some resonator banjos. I think, given the quality, tone, and action, there'd be a lot more Wildwoods around if not for their heft.
