Poor
Model Super Grade 1988 1989 dated FLG type (IJN) after the site http://www.japanguitars.co.uk/burny% 20info.html ( http://www.japanguitars.co.uk/burny%20info.html )
cherry sunburst finish, flamed Maple top, but not wavy like in the photo, the exact form, including head of the Paul, beautiful baby weighing 4 kg, the typical round Paul is what makes the reputation of Burny, sensation is excellent, hooping really comfortable, very fair, true happiness. When empty it sounds very balanced and powerful. Vintage mechanical lubrication, with a nice look but they take very well the tide and bendings of a tone and a half. The woods are tight, it breathes authenticity. pickgard one is present, short, with the logo and the perfect form, before the mirror, it seems to be true!
UTILIZATION
It's like a Les Paul Standard. The mine was equipped with Seymour Duncan SH2 (too skinny) / SH1 and I changed to a classic 57 round microphone before changing again soon for a configuration very handmade craft etc. ...
The sound is balanced and very powerful. It's amazing and it's also why I'm going down the wing in terms of choice of microphones. The guitar responds well in terms of dynamics, the 3 positions are classic, the bridge pickup position is better, it sweeps everything with a great punch and sustain full of warmth, not to have his way on that quelqu'ampli whatsoever. It's fantastic. The neck position is very punchy and smooth whatever the mic, but I think it lacks definition, it's hard to find the right formula, with the gibson is a bit too soft and it lacks finesse, with the SH2 was too mild satisfaction. The sound rumbles and bass are very active, making a big contrast with the neck position.
That said, I'm so addicted and accustomed to the sounds hyper defined and precise strata as the sound of an LP less well-defined nature becomes intriguing to me.
SOUNDS
This guitar is cut out for rock and blues spot. It vibrates to the touch, it is played with great comfort despite its weight.
Rarely (I should say never) crystal, she prefers saturated or very crunchy. Electronics is handy because the knobs are very efficient and clean.
It's like a LP standard, it does not do everything with.
OVERALL OPINION
Bought 420 euros on ebay 2 years ago, I'm sure I got a bargain because this guitar is xxx times better than any gibson epiphone and certainly some of the 80 not always tip top! It is seen in the choice of wood and comfort, handling, quality sound.
Beware, there are Burny from all eras, some are much better than mine still listed even though it has some wonderful qualities manufacturing (long neck tenon, wood, etc. ...), others are made in Korea (approximately from 91) and that's all, the quality was often better before ...
I would love to find the original pickups, the famous VH1, I think they are certainly better suited. If someone has a track ...
Really a great guitar for those who no longer support epiphone damn evil and watching the Gibson in the windows and totally overpriced.
Added:
I finally opted for zebra Seymour Duncan SH1 '59 classic and with these pickups it sounds best. The clean sound is now very beautiful, very warm and crunches or loadings are beautiful grain of the time Mick Taylor, Clapton Episode I or Michael Bloomfield. A guitar worthy of the old system these pickups to the old, with a mounting knobs (new since they spitting a bit) also type 50's with capacitors sprague, when you love ...
