FS 1981 Burny FLG-90 MIJ

[Floyd Pink]

Near mint Burny FLG-90 Super Grade from 1981.

1980-81 Burny FLG-models are fairly rare, and are IMO some of the finest MIJ guitars available. This is a '81 FLG-90 with the Super Grade script logo. The guitar has a pure nitro finish, one-piece body and original L8001 PAF's (untouched electronics). Original high-quality nickel hardware, including double-ring Fernandes tuners. The guitar has once been professionally refretted, and also has naturally aged hardware. Otherwise, this guitar is almost in mint condition. There is no belt buckle rash etc.

This one is a very resonant, long sustaining guitar. Very good note definition, and it sounds loud and clear acoustically. Original case (optionally brand new Lifton repro). Asking $1500 + shipping from Scandinavia.
