Look, I have to be honest, I know my acoustic is lighter and cheaper to replace. I know I am not as attached to it as well. But damn it, I am really an electric Guitarist. My Strat, hardshell case, and Pignose Amp would probably add up to just over 15 Lbs. But I know I really want it and that is why the question keeps popping back into my mind. 15 Lbs of Music gear is a lot, but being a blues player, not only does my mobile rig have the sound, it's got the look. My Strat has been my main instrument going on 20 years. And have totally carried miles plenty of times. Almost to the point that I know full well that you almost just get used to it. But the gear kit I am planning, plus clothes, food, and water is looking to be an estimated 35-40 Lbs. Can someone attempt to talk some fucking sense into my head?
