Hey Otto, Nice one! Hadn't been around in awhile. Looks like a later RLG-90 to me also. Only differnce from mine is, wiring channel route is different. Mine's vertical. :) That one has a winged TRC, I noticed RLG-90's, still being featured in the catalogs in 1990.

Some of my best Burny's are RLG-50's.

Nice Sykes model. I'd like to have one but, 1 black custom is enough. A friend of mine I trade with, brought one of those over about 10 years ago. Playd great but, I didn't plug it into an amp. I thought it was neat, that they even copied the Dirty Fingers pickup in the bridge!

If I had to guess, maybe a RLC-60. That's a good weight on that one. I have one, 2-piece mahagony body, about 8.5lb. Very resosnant and lite for a Custom. I think the pickups are possibly L8000, instead of VH1's though.

That early 80's Burny is probably closer to a 50's model, all mahagony, if that's what you wanted to know but, possibly has an ebonised rosewood board. I'm sure they all have good qualities about them but, I prefer the early 80's Burny, personally. :D

I can't tell Mojo? I thought maybe it was 50/09 like on the inlay?

I saw that this morning aswell, wonder how they came to that model number?

Wow, Otto, I missed this thread! FEB too! great score. :D

I think Japanstrat, here on the forum would have more info on these early Burny's. :D

Interesting, you brought Slash up. It does look like that mid 80's Standard he played with a 3-piece top.

You got that right!:D Just from the Gotoh labeled pickups, with Square VH1 stickers. I'd guess at least late 90's, at the oldest. Since, those were used up to the present. Late 80's to mid 90's, I usually see the version 2, VH1's. :D

2002, They had 2-hole TRC then. I have a 2003 with 2-screws. It shows 3 screws in the catalog though. The newer RLG85's I've seen demoed on youtube have 3 screws. Those later VH1's with the big square VH1 sticker on the bottom, I started seeing in the late 90's to the present. That's what my 03'...

Nice case. Is that a Tokai case? The only thing that I could see, that looked like a date, was in manual_3 pic. There's an '02 written underneath where it reads Serial number?

Someone posted one with that TRC for sale. Either here or on mylepaul forum. Can't remember what it was though, mij mic?

I have a 2003 rlg-90 with the 2 screw TRC but, I have noticed 3 screw in the catalog?

Does your P90 have the dogear tabs on the metal baseplate? If it does, you can put a regular soapbar p90 in and use the dogear cover with a piece of foam under neath and it will be a little farther away from the strings. That was how my 2006 MIJ Epihone Junior came equipped. I had replaced it...

I should add, all my Burny's now have bumblebees or NOS PIO caps! :wink:

Nice info, Otto! :D My 81' FLG90 has sheilded cavities and black PIO caps. My Early 80'S RLG-90 and RSG-75 AY, both have the sheilded cavities and grey PIO caps. All my other 80's Burny's, have the green polyester caps except, My 94' RLG-70, which has yellow caps, a thicker neck than all my...

Dang, I wouldn't have even caught those differences. :D

Your right after 92' they don't don't even feature burny's in the catalogs. The RLG-70 isn't in the 97' catalog, just like it isn't in the 87' catalog but, is in the 90', right? :D In fact tons of Burny's I've seen are never in catalogs. The only RLC-75 I've seen is in the 91' catalog but, no...
