Good luck to you.]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance thomasb https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-385858 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-168143 Fri, 24 Mar 2006 11:02:38 +0000 Thinking about it, in that context, it made some sense.
Yes, I have a Burns, a guitar that I'd recommend to anyone. Mine has the same type of pickup that was in the original Burns Marvin (Res-o-matik), but there is a version, in the US, that uses the Tri-Sonics.]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance greybeard https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-168143 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-168118 Fri, 24 Mar 2006 06:24:18 +0000
by the way isn't your pick a burns? i've seen them on ebay but only in a twelve string version.]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance afterblast https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-168118 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-167987 Thu, 23 Mar 2006 23:12:50 +0000 If you can afford it get it, those old Burns guitars were very good, they were supposedly all slightly different, because the were made by hand - and the Burns Tri-Sonic, a close brother to the Jazz, is the pickup found in Brian May's Red Special.]]> Guitar Repair and Maintenance greybeard https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-167987 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-167973 Thu, 23 Mar 2006 22:37:24 +0000 Guitar Repair and Maintenance Ricochet https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-167973 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-repair-and-maintenance/burns-split-jazz-pickups/#post-16537 Thu, 23 Mar 2006 21:17:59 +0000 http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Burns-London-Split-Sound-Jazz-guitar-w-case_W0QQitemZ7400407471QQcategoryZ119094QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

now being kinda curious I googled it, and apparently the pickups on it are single coils, but are set up so that you can sepperate the three low strings from the high ones. and that one of the settings gives you the bass from the neck with the treble from the bridge.

it seems like a cool idea to me but then again I've never tried it.

Does anyone know how this works? or rather if it sounds good?
