Yes at 57 with a not so great back comfort is essential!

I think that is probably most important in terms of wanting to pick it up and play as you say. My Taylor 512s are just under 6lbs.The Gibson was definately the lightest of what I have tried, but also as I said I love the basic finish of the Faded. I think I am going to end up with one especially as it makes me want to pick it up and play it.

Will just try the Epiphone Worn to confirm though that seems to be a lot heavier according to their web site.

I do appreciate the advice!

This forum is great in that it is very active. I posted a while back on the Washburn forum and am yet to get a reply!
