newpeter newpeter Be Nice (I'm New!) Registered: 01/09/10 Posts: 34 Loc: North East of England.MIDDLESB...	hi I`m Peter,60yr old rocker that tried learning a few years ago .I quit after having been let down a few times by my teacher.I`ve decided to give it a go again and have been looking at the Burny selection.The RLG 55VCS has been recommended to me.I have still got a selection of guitars but decided to treat myself to a newy. I think I had a case of GAS and maybe still have ,but what the heck.I`ll be lurking a bit while building up my calluses again . Nice to be back.Had a lot of fun few years ago on this forum.So hello all. _________________________ CARVIN CT6M...ARIA PRO II,....BURNY GOLDTOP P90, TanglewooD 15 dlx accoustic......Gordon SmithSG2 Natural.

Skyline Band Skyline Band Professional Forumite! Registered: 08/09/06 Posts: 452 Loc: Leamington Spa	Hi Peter, and welcome (back). I have a new Burny and they're excellent in terms of fit, finish, and value for money. But to make them top notch I recommend swapping the pickups out for something better; in my case I put in some Bareknuckle Stormy Monday ones. John _________________________ My band My songs

Lurcher Lurcher Professional Forumite! Registered: 09/02/09 Posts: 899 Loc: Tipperary, Ireland	Hi Peter and welcome back. Burny's have a great reputation but as has been mentioned, a pickup swap might just get the exact sound you fancy. BKP often reccommend Mules for the most PAF-like sound, or a mix with Mules in the neck and something a bit hotter at the bridge. Then you might get tempted into some of the wiring oddities that are so popular now. Its all good fun.
