Some may be interested to know that my 'go to' guitar is my Burns Brian May if it's complete versatility I need.
Interesting how people can differ in their preferences. I've had a Strat for some 40 years - it's a very nice example, but since getting my Burns Apache, it never gets played. I just love the feel and action of the Rezotube "whammy bar" and find it so much nicer to use that the Fender variant. My "go to" guitar is now my 2018 re-issue Marvin, which was sold at a discount as it's the wrong colour (should be white, but it's a lovely deep shade of cream). On the other hand, I recently took the Marvin round to show to a musician friend. He's a devout Fender player through and through, but loved playing the Burns. He hated it's looks though!
I'd love to hear something positive from the new owners, even if the guitars themselves aren't launched for a few more months. I find myself constantly looking at a "trans blue" Dream guitar the Spens has for sale, but would hate to spend the money only for the new owners to produce something equally as beautiful.
