I've grown to like Burny guitars and basses as much as Greco models. Both are Made in Japan and both are superior quality instruments. This Gold Top Super Grade has great attention to detail, plays like a dream and those nickel pickups come really close to PAF tone. Solid mahogany body & set neck with a rosewood fretboard and fluted inlays. The body and fretboard are bound and it's got sealed Kluson-style tuners. The guitar looks brand new and weighs just 8 3/4 lbs, much less than a typical Les Paul weighs. Comes in a brand new and super-deluxe Epiphone Les Paul case.
