BURNS "Marvin" ( 1964 ) - a look "under the hood"!

Some pics of my original Marvin from 1964! The instrument is in a very good condition. Frets are more than OK. Some cracks in the lack and it has for the most Marvins usual small
crack on the neckmount!

Johann,

Looks good to me....the same as in my Marvin.
I've the same initials on the stickers under some of my Burns guitars pickguards, makes me wonder who's .....
