I want to buy B650 and I already have a TRB6ii Yamaha. I want a guitar which weights less for live performances. Is B650 suitable for live performances?
Note: TRB6ii weights 5 KGs.

Welcome to the forum sgursel. You might be able to get some idea of weight using the "compare" function on the Thomann product pages, which gives the shipped weight of each item. I have weighed 2 of my HB guitars (a TE20 MN and HB35): they weigh 3.5 and 3.7 kg respectively and the shipped weight for each on the compare listing is 4.6kg. This would suggest that Thomann allow in the region of 0.75-1kg for the packaging. The shipped weight of the B650 shows as 5.35kg. Once you allow for shipping, it should be lighter than your TRB6ii. Whether the difference would be enough for you is the big question. In the product reviews, one reviewer said they had been gigging it for years and another said it was to heavy for live use! Hopefully someone here does have a B650 and can give you some first hand comments.
