I can't argue with that, I enjoy playing my two Burns guitars, the white 2004 and the red 2005.

My first 'real' guitar was a Burns, and I think, of all the guitar choices available, they are probably the most underrated guitar. Which is the reason I bought my Apache, last year.

I agree that Burns guitars ate hugely underated. I've got three of them and they're all excellent!

The Burns Apache that Barry Gibson sent up to Cambridge for us to use on our UK tour is now winging it's way to Oz as airfreight in the belly of a B747. I don't think there are too many Apache's in Oz so this will be a bit of a novelty. Baz will be gobsmacked to see his "old friend" again.

Hi David and everyone else back at the community - nice to be back1
I have now had time to really test out my Burns "Apache" compared to my other two Marvins and I've got to tell you that this instrument is magnificent. It sounds and feels superb and I don't think the original guitar back in 64 could compare with this build quality.
I love them all but this one is the 'Best'

Hi Guys,
Must endorse the comments about Burns guitars. My Burns experience goes back to 1960 and I still have an "Artist" guitar and the "Artist" bass. I am a bass player and also last year purchased a "Custom Elite Rostill bass" and am very impressed with it,even though I have traditionally been a "Precision" player. The guys I play with have a pair of "Apaches" and they are superb.
