With its wide comfortable neck and three powerful Tri-Sonic pickups this Burns 12-string is a versatile and great-sounding guitar for many applications. This 1966 example is also a supremely striking looking machine, with a vibrant red-black sunburst (a fairly rare variation) on the body and on the neck and huge double-sided headstock. The Double Six is equipped has the standard three single-coil Burns Tri-Sonic pickups giving it a clear and very powerful sound, and the big neck is a treat for players who feel constrained by the typical narrow Rickenbacker-style 12 string fingerboard. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis particular guitar was made six months or so after the US Baldwin company took over the London-based Burns operation in September 1965. There are no major differences from the original Burns version, just small detail changes: the neck has fretboard binding and of course the \"Baldwin\"pickguard logo. One of the very best Burns-designed instruments and a mucho cool guitar, favored by the Searchers, The Zombies, The Troggs and even Elvis!\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 42 1\/4 in.
