Not really sure if this means anything. But it did not even get an Honorable Mention in Guitar Player magazines Solid Deals for under-$500. It does look killer!

 

 

LOL.. guitar world

 

but no, it doesn't mean anything.

 

plus it's a weird british import that most people haven't heard of. I certainly hadn't.

Guitar Player. And yeah, that means something; their reviews are fairly soft but they're better than Guitar World or Premier Guitar.

Er...Burns guitars have been around since at least the mid-60s. This isn't a new brand or a new design. Burns guitars that I've played have been very nice, though it's been many years since I played one.

 

Brian May from Queen's famous homemade red guitar sports Burns Tri-Sonic pickups.

Me too, mine has a pull out switch that I think reverses phase. Makes a lot of neat sounds. Though their knife edge trem seems to be a tuning nightmare. -Adam

 

 

The switch turns on the third pickup.

 

I never use the trem. Claw is screwed in tight and the handle has been missing for years.
