I went to my local pawn shop today.Usually they only have a bunch of junky broken guitars.Today I saw what at 1st looked like a Gibson Les Paul Standard but when I got close enough to read the headstock I saw that it said Burny SuperGrade.

The color is a red color(?)plaintop.Maybe it is a mahogany top.It has a some dings and play wear .I has an SKB LP case with some metal band stickers on it.The price tag said $599 but they will sell it for $399. Think it is worth that?

How can you tell which it is?There is no serial number.

Like this one?

These were made in Japan in the 70's to 80's, the specific one I posted pics of has an asking price of $799, but that seems like way too much. Burny is the sub company of Ferandes, so Fernades could produce both Fender and Gibson copies.
Misc info: Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols has used Burny guitars as has Hideto Matsumoto from X Japan and Robert Fripp of King Crimson and Steve Hackett of Genesis and Billie Joe of Green Day have used Fernandes Guitars.

More like a Wine Red or an Ox Blood color.
