|
|
Hi all,
I just swapped a guitar for a Burny LP Custom. Should be in my mitts later this week. My guess is that its an '82-83. I can't wait. Here are some pics.
So, what do you think? |

Looks nice!! Early '80's based on the 'correct' diamond inlay. Looks in very good condition. |

I guess that's the Saint Paul mentioned in Johnny Cash's Big River?

Thanks for the welcome! I'm really excited about this Burny. I can't wait to get it! I'm about 30 min. south of Mpls. and I really like Kramer guitars. |

I got one of those recently. It's a great guitar, all mahagony like a 57' ebony board. Hope you like yours, I can't get over how much nicer it sounds and plays over my old 74' Custom. |

Congrats! Btw, that's what everybody seems to say about these burny's. I was impressed with mine also, really resonant, strong acoustic sound  |

Aren't the ones from 83-84 Matsomoku? I'm just wondering if the Aria from this time period are as nice. |

I actually did play some Kiss. My batteries died before I got there. Oh well. One quick question, should this guitar have pickup covers?
