c1975 Burns Flyte
Take 'flight' with the Burns Flyte!
A real oddity from the history of Burns Guitars, the Flyte took it's initial inspiration from the Concorde and at one point was even going to be called the Concorde! This was the first design produced under James Baldwins own name after selling off the business to Baldwin.
Featuring a mahogany body and bolt-on maple neck, perhaps the most odd addition is the choice of ebonized maple for the fretboard (feels very different under the fingers). The original Mach One humbucker under the covers have been replaced with Filtertrons, as the initial pickups were quite prone to noise.Ā
A great opportunity to own a piece of British guitar making history, and perhaps one of the most unique guitars to have ever been put into production.Ā
Hardware is fully functional, and plays well with a low action. Includes the original hard case.Ā
