Lets face it if you play a electric guitar youve heard of the Chibsons coming out of China for many years now, bespoke, copies made to order. But for the price i very much recommend the Chinese ones. Materials differ on the more expensive Burny's made by the more highly paid Japanese Craftsmen, Yes. Humans are the same the world over it doesnt matter who has made it as long as consistency in craftsmanship is met.
#BURNY GUITAR PICTURE INSTALL#
Id did install new p90's and electrics which has improved its sound but it doesn't need bridge or tail piece upgrading because string transfer is there.Obviously Burny Japan has watched the production and keeps standards. The Goldtop is excellent, the build quality is great. I have a fantasic playing 80's Japanese Burny custom and also a 2014 Chinese Burny Goldtop which i bought new for £400. £500 however buys you a great work horse Les Paul Alternative in the Burny. The whole played in vibe gives a guitar something quite special and Gibson is a great example of how this works.Ī new Gibson at £1800? You must be having laugh if you buy one new - really - why? With so many used examples on the market you have to be crazy to buy a lower quality, poorly made modern Gibson when you can buy so many good examples of used ones at a lower price. Whilst I detest Gibson marketing and general culture for very poor quality these days you cannot beat an older Gibson with a bit of history to it. I have had several customers who have opted to continue using their Burny instead of their Gibson not just because it is cheaper but they have actually prefered the Burny!! However if you want a quality alternative to a Les Paul they really are superb. The major problem is supply with only 2 deliveries into the UK in 2 years so it makes it hard to really credibly "get into" promoting them - too frustrating!!
