Burns Baldwin GB-65

Burns Baldwin GB-65, One of the rarest and most unusual Burns guitars.
This model was in production for just over a year from 1965-66 and was one of the first instruments discontinued by Baldwin after they fully took over the company's operation.

This is a flat-topped fully hollow body guitar with two pickups, eccentrically shaped sound holes and a long 25 1/2" scale neck. The heavily braced cutaway mahogany body was called the "Controlled Resonance" design by the company, and the concept was continued with the somewhat better known "Virginian" guitar with a round sound hole introduced later in the year.

Resides in Porvoo.
