andyfuchs	Re: Varitone Choke weight? I don't know about two pounds, but it is a fairly substantial piece. It's potted, and in a mu-metal can, and dont forget theres two (for stereo). I doubt the two are more than 1/2 lb for the pair. I think there might also be more wood cut inside the 345 and 355 to fit that stuff. Perhaps the centerpiece of a 335 is thicker ? I know the ES-330 has no block, and it's light as heck (also feeds back alot).
