That's a silly question.

This sounds pretty similar to an unplugged electric guitar ;)

 

The acoustic in our bathroom however offer excellent reverb for when one has to deal with a "Noisy-Poo" as our three year old explains to everyone she meets!

You do realize that guitars have different weights, even guitars of the same model and especially guitars that have been modded with replacement trem blocks and whatnot.

Yeah, I understand that. A potential buyer for one of mine wanted to know how much it weighed. Pretty sure a general, ball park weight would suffice.

As would a general, ballpark guess.

I would caution you against that because, as we've discussed in other threads, guys who are that particular about weights, neck measurements and the like are IMO lining up an arsenal of things they can use to return your item after they decide they don't like it, become bored with it, or simply wanted to take it for a spin on your dime.

On the other hand, guys who are that particular about weights, neck measurements and the like also rarely buy anything, so yeah, pulling any number out of your ass will probably do the trick. For that approach I'd recommend skewing toward a heavier number, as you're more likely to disqualify him that way.

Tell him confidently, "Between 5 and 15 lbs.".

I settled for the truth:  I don't know and I don't have a reliable means of weighing it. Sorry...

"My bathroom scale says it's.......". Then carry it out to the 6th decimal.

This is as true as any value - measured or made up.
