MEASUREMENTSĪll original hardware that came with the guitar. Bridge cover was left off, as it was received, since the bridge cover is a lot worse than the neck. The covers are pretty corroded/oxidised and green. Currently has original Burny pickups installed and sounds great.īridge is zebra, maybe the neck too. Some pots and capacitors (one Orange Drop) have been replaced. Bridge probably not original has brass saddles. Tuners and most original electronics (pots, etc.) were not provided. Some of the rustier and more corroded bits have been replaced. Previous owner mounted new waffleback tuners, new knobs, pretty sure new pickup rings, etc. The biggest ding is down at the base of the body. Guitar has some nicks, dings, scratches, worming on back and general play wear but nothing major no binding issues, only a few small damage marks through the finish, and a small finish break in the lacquer on the headstock from when the previous owner changed the tuners. Guitarboretum loves Burny guitars and compare them very favorably to Grecos, Tokais and Gibsons. Plays great, feels fantastic in hand, but is a player’s guitar for sure. Nice neck, a little slimmer, more of a ’60s profile. It plays great, can be set up with absurdly low action with small amount of buzz that doesn’t come through the amp, but currently set up for very low action with no buzz.
Burny guitar serial numbers decode serial number#
No serial number on guitar or pickups (see more info about electronics below). It was previously sold as a 1982 but it’s been so modified it’s hard to say at this point. It doesn’t appear to be a VH-1 guitar, so should be pre-1983. Tried to capture the color in the photos hopefully you can see how nice it is. The tobacco is not a black to brown, it’s Oxblood to brown.
The sound is vintage, clear and bell-like.
If you know Burny, this is a great example of an RLG. May be a single piece back, can’t see a seam. Nice plain top, some flecks, mineral streaks here and there, nice grain fret edge binding and open book headstock. ~1982 Burny RLG-60/70 Super Grade in Tobacco Sunburst.
