Hi Clive,
Good to know you have a complete and correct Bison 64 Deluxe - those 'unofficial' omissions and amendments I mentioned tend to niggle me. Concerning quality, this model came out comparatively late in the day and, on the evidence of the examples I've had through my hands, I'd say by then it represented the best that Burns' Korean manufacture could manage. As yet, the substituted Chinese production source has issued only the Bison 62, which in some ways improves on its Korean equivalent, but not in others, so work still needs to be done. Regardless of origin, these modern Bisons do offer great value, retaining plenty of the original character, plus great playability and sounds that are usable rather than gimmicky.
