According to "Pearls and Crazy Diamonds" book yours is a GB66 De Luxe about 1965. To quote 2 An extremely rare Burns guitar,still more jazz orientated than the GB66. It is very similar to the GB66 in terms of design, but has a thicker body, Bar-o-Matik pickups and a Charlie Christian type of circuitry with tone, volume,a 3-way selector and a density control gave it a good jazz sound. The neck pick-up had two coils which were mixable by a density control. Standard finish in golden sunburst with rosewood fingerboard but other finish's,like red sunburst, were available. Some guitars had a bound fingerboard. The guitar was also made under the Baldwin banner. It was produced for just a couple of months in 1965.Retail price £143."
