About This Model

The Burns Double Six is a 12-string electric guitar built around the distinctive Burns 'Strat-with-sharper-horns' body shape, shared with the Marvin and Shadows bass models. It carries a set of Tri-Sonic pickups wired in a straightforward Strat-style configuration — a three-way selector switch, one master volume, and two tone controls — delivering the chiming, harmonically rich output characteristic of a 12-string electric. The neck is notably wide, with a fingerboard approaching two inches across, giving it a broader playing feel than rivals such as the Rickenbacker. The bridge is a floating metal bar mounted over a heavy-pin tailpiece, offering a simple, fixed-slant intonation setup. One of the guitar's most immediately striking features is its dramatically extended headstock, whose elongated, angular profile makes it instantly recognisable. This example is finished in Red Sunburst, one of the documented period finishes for the model.

A great opportunity to own a Burns Double Six at this price point.
