Product Description
Burn Sonic bass 1961/2 made in England. This is a lovely example of the Sonic bass one of the earliest of Jim Burns guitars and basses made in England. Its a very small bodied bass with a 29.5 inch scale and great to play finished in cherry with a black neck fading into red at each end as did many early Burns guitars. It is an early one because it has a cherry maple neck and the later ones 1962/4 were in rosewood.
There are two Tri Sonic pickups each with volume controls and an overall tone control plus a three-way pickup selector switch all set into the black scratchplate. There is the usual mini scratchplate in cream too.
The bridge/tailpiece is fully adjustable and still has its chrome cover. The fingerboard contains 20 frets - all good, and the headstock has the ''Burns Sonic Model London'' plate and the four on a side and very desirable Van Ghent covered tuners.
Its a very good playing bass and is probably the best one I have come across being pretty much all original - the bottom strap pin is a replacement and I would say that some of the body has been touched up to cover knocks and bumps; but it has not been refinished and is the right colour and looks in keeping. It comes in a period Selmer hardcase which could be the original case - certainly it is of the same time.
