Up for sale is a fantastic and rare
Burns Club Series Marquee Elite
electric guitar in the striking
Sterling Silver
finish. This specific instrument is the top-tier
Elite
variant, distinguished by its premium factory-upgraded gold hardware package and high-performance tremolo system. It delivers the iconic 1960s British tone and style with superior modern playability.
Key Elite Features:
-
Rez-O-Matik Pickups:
Three vintage-voiced Alnico single-coils offering legendary, punchy, "hi-fi" clarity and jangle—made famous by Hank Marvin of The Shadows.
-
"The Point Classic" Bridge:
Upgraded, high-performance gold twin-pivot tremolo block designed for exceptional sustain and tuning stability.
-
7-Way Tonal Switching:
Features a push/pull tone pot that expands your pickup configurations from 5 to 7, allowing you to run the bridge and neck together, or all three pickups simultaneously.
-
Classic Styling:
Features the iconic Jim Burns scroll headstock, a zero fret for low action, and the asymmetric multi-piece pickguard.
Condition Report (Please Read Before Bidding):
This guitar is in great working order, plays wonderfully, and is structurally sound, but does show minor, honest signs of age and light playwear as shown in the pictures:
-
Frets & Neck:
The frets are in good condition with plenty of life left in them. The neck is straight and the electronics are fully functional.
-
Body/Paint:
There is a small ding on the back of the body and a couple of minor superficial marks from play.
-
Neck Joint:
There is a small, purely cosmetic lacquer-only crack by the neck joint (this is incredibly common on bolt-on guitars of this era and does not affect structural integrity).
-
Hardware:
There is minor, age-related pitting/tarnishing on the gold plating of the Point Classic bridge.
