As DW says they're pretty heavy and they have a relatively wide neck compared with most popular fender type guitars (strat, jazzmaster, jag etc) so if you're used to playing one of these it can take a wee while to adjust. Being hardtail guitars and having body mounted humbucking pickups they also tend to have a richer, more resonant tone.
