About this listing
Here for sale we have a Burns Brian May Signature Red Special Electric Guitar in Cherry finish. Made in South Korea, this guitar consists of a chambered Mahogany body, a Mahogany neck, and a 24-fret Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include Grover locking mini tuners, a Burns London Deluxe Tremolo system, and a trio of Burns Tri Sonic single coil pickups. These pickups are wired to a master volume, master tone, 3 pickup on/off sliders, and 3 phase on/off sliders.The Mahogany neck plays well, offering a smooth and speedy playing surface, with the 'D' shape neck profile filling the hand nicely whilst encouraging comfortable & ergonomic thumb positioning. The dual cutaways afford unrestricted access up to the 24th fret, whilst the smooth lines of the body are comfortable in both standing & seated playing positions. Medium Jumbo frets feel rock solid & dependable under the fingers, making for easy bends and enhanced vibrato. The Ebony of the fingerboard is pleasant to the touch, and with its 10" radius provides a nice balance between comfortable chord playing and practicality for lead lines and string bending. The trio of Burns Tri-Sonic style single coil pickups sound crisp and clear, with a sweet low end, open midrange and articulate highs. Clean sounds are bright and snappy, with a fast attack. Driving the amp produces rich crunchy tones, perfect for emulating the Queen guitarist's sound. Each pickup is controlled by individual on/off and phase slider switches, allowing for a wide variety of tones. The pickups share master volume and tone controls for easy sonic sculpting.Brand- BurnsModel- Brian May Signature Red SpecialFinish- CherryMade In- South KoreaBody- MahoganyNeck- MahoganyNeck Profile- 'D'Fingerboard- EbonyFingerboard Radius- 10" (Measured)Frets- 24Scale Length- 24"Nut Width- 1.77"Pickups- 3x Burns Tri-Sonic Single Coil PickupsControls- 3x Pickup on/off Slider, 3x Phase Slider, Master Volume, Master ToneLuthier ReportOur ID: 1100926240610Weight: 8.15lbs Serial: BHM3863Aesthetic Condition:Headstock: Overall very good condition, the front face demonstrates light scratching surrounding the tuners.Neck: Overall very good condition, some slight finish delamination is apparent to the fingerboard edges near the zero fret.
