Vintage 1960s Burns London Sonic Model Maple Electric Guitar Case
Vintage 1960s Burns London Sonic Model Maple Electric Guitar Case
This is one heck of a guitar, but don’t let the small body deceive you. The Tri-Sonic pickups are the same classic pickups that Brian May is credited for and this is the rarer version with maple neck (most being rosewood), Van Ghent machine heads, and comes with the early ‘PAT APP’ tremolo bar and pyramid tremolo unit. This early 60s model comes complete with the original case, and a picture of the previous owner.
This guitar has been checked over and restrung, where necessary, to make it a playable standard. To find out more about what our service includes, please check out our terms and conditions before purchasing.

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).
We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.
It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.
The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
