Up for sale, a 1984 Burny Jeff Watson signature LG-65JW in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. Crafted in Japan under the umbrella of the Fernandes company, Burny has long been celebrated for producing some of the most impressive "lawsuit" LPs on the market. This uncommon model was crafted in collaboration with Night Ranger guitarist Jeff Watson, featuring a Goldtop finish accented by chrome plastics/hardware.

Traditional LP-style tonewoods include a mahogany body, maple top, and a mahogany neck capped with a bound rosewood fretboard, and this LG-65JW weighs 9lbs 4oz. The neck position humbucker is described by Burny as “Seymour Duncan style,” and this pickup is gutsy and potent with plenty of harmonic detail and breadth. The bridge pickup has a PAF-style wind with a scooped midrange and focused aggression. This LG-65JW has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
