The best of the specials zippyshare. But, I dare to say with honesty that old Burny Les Pauls around 1980 are really nice, and there are no overestimation about it. Fallout new vegas solid project. Gibson type truss rod cover, lacquer finish, no serial number and high position of 'Super Grade' script indicate this one to be RLG-90 the early 80's.

Fernandes (and Bury) were brand names of Saito Musical Instruments had.
The company was founded in 1969 and registered as Fernandes in 1972.
Originally selling the flamenco guitars, the company expanded productionover the years to include different acoustic models, electric guitars,bass guitars, amplifiers and accessories and is today one of the most famousJapanese guitar Manufacturers.
They didn't official announced but Mr. Saito asked both Mr. Katsumi Omote(He was a staff of Fernandes, transferring employee, conducted Kawai manufacturing,He was a guitar player but knew much knowledge of electric guitars already.)
I'm not sure but Mr. Saito also asked Mr. Hidesato Shiino to support the
Fernandes electric guitars line in the early 1970's. Probably, both Mr.Omote and Mr. Shiino conducted early time Fernandes Guitar.
They made 2 brands such as Fernandes and Burny. Fernandes line is replica of Fender,
Burny was replica of Gibson line.
These were a very good replica. The price was 1/3-1/4 of original guitars.Also, the quality was much better than earlier GRECO, (Matsumoku era) MORRIS,Guyatone and others.
FST (Strat) and FTE (Tele) were early time line-up with Fernandes Logo on the head.
The hardware size was metric instead of fractional. So, the bridge was made slightly narrow.
The body was made by the silver heart wood which was used at many bowling alley.
After bowling booming at early 70's, many bowling alley were bankrupted.
They use the wood from those scrap. They made the body from these woods.
(Well, H.S.Anderson used it too). That's why early Fernandes body is bonded wood!
The weak point of this wood was really heavy weight. So you could feel the weight more compare
with other replica.
The early catalogs featured TV, SG and Firebird replica. Burny brand wasused for these Gibson replicas. it was unique that most Japanese manufacturerswere using bolt-on neck bodies but BURNY was very good at set-neck constructionfor upper class. (ELK did set-in neck a bit earlier). In addition, theSG copy included the vibro-tremolo unit.
As an interesting side note, the Burny name was supposed to be Bunny (asin rabbits) but was misspelled. On learning of the error and the Englishmeaning of burn, they decided to stick with the original BURNY brand name.
The actual manufacturer is Kawai Gakki. They made all Fernandes guitarsas OEM contract. Kawai has many knowledge from Teisco production. However,they didn't know well about Fender and Gibson originals.
Fernandes offered the big size Guitar Amplifiers at the same type of guitars.These Amplifiers were named 'Royal', look like Orange Amplifier.Theseare also conducted by Mr. Omote and Mr. Shiino. Well, 2 gentlemen startedESP a bit later. They were original member of ESP foundation (a bit later,2 gentlemen left ESP, they have internal argument and it became court battlewith current ESP owner).
The sale of Fernandes was increased a lot. They sent Mr. Omote for theStates to investigate more guitars. He bought back many second hand guitars(well, these are now vintage guitars). Then, they started to make moredetailed replica.
In 1975, Fernandes introduced replica of the Gibson Les Paul Standard and Custom.
They used the solid mahogany back and 2 piece spild wood top like Gibson.
Also made closely matched the set-neck construction of the Gibson originals.
Probably, in 75-76, Fernandes has started to discussion with Tokai Gakki to start
the OEM production.
In 1977-80, Fernandes started the new logo mark guitars (We called it asStone In 1981, under intense legal pressure from Gibson and Fender, Fernandesintroduced 'The Revival' series. Fernandes was forced to changethe design of the logo mark and inlay on the head peg board to distancethemselves from the Gibson and Fender designs. Many different logo andhead designs mark this era. However, the guitars were developed very much.
They checked the Gibson/Fender Vintage guitars, and analyze them. The bodycavities, PU, Tremolo units and others.., They completely made clone guitars.These are incredible nice quality guitars as price listed.
The following are short explanation of Fernandes Strat Replica history
1973-74 Traditional Type 'Fernandes' Logo --- Kawai --- conducted by Mr. Omote and Mr. Shiino
1975-77 Spaghetti Type 'Fernandes' Logo --- Kawai/Tokai --- conducted by Mr. Omote
1978-79 Stone Type 'Fernandes' Logo --- Tokai
1980-81 Stone Type 'Fernandes' Logo --- Changed to 22F --- Tokai
1981-90 Revival Series Logo --- Probably Tokai
2003 Revival Second Generation --- No idea about the MFG
FERNANDES is also well known in the United States for its Sustainer system
which uses electromagnetism to vibrate a string for an indefinite period?
as long as the user continues to fret the note. This was a huge leap forward
in electric guitar technology and the custom shop at FERNANDES and dealers
worldwide installed Sustainers on many manufacturers' guitars.
I personally do not like the Fernandes guitars after 1990. They made the guitar in Korea?
China? I think ZO-3 was made in Korea, no doubt.
The qulity of this brand was great in 1975-early time 80's.
These are golden time guitars. Well, revival series were really good even compare with
real Fender line.
And if you are lucky, please check the Burny line which Mr. Omote involved.
These were very good construction and tone. Maybe. Tokai LS series was the influenced by these lines.
Fernandes didn't have their own factory. Well, Greco didn't too, without factory,
the companies became the marketing, whole sales and money oriented.
They have the good sales network and brand name but they left the manufacturing spirits.

- Welcome to Rickenbacker's serial number decoder page. Rickenbacker serial numbers have been issued in a number of formats. To the right and below, you will find some images that will hopefully help you to locate the complete serial number on your instrument.
- Burny is a range of Gibson replica guitars produced by Fernandes Guitars. The Fernandes company was established in 1969 in Japan. Its Burny brand was used for the Gibson replica guitars while the Fernandes brand was used for the Fender replica guitars. Fernandes initially made acoustic guitars and started making electric guitars around 1971.
- The older Fernandes guitars do have serial numbers on occasion, and can be found on the neck plates of the Stratocasters of the Revival series, but otherwise, Burny and Fernandes didn't often use serial numbers. Dating a Burny or Fernandes can be loosely done by looking at the truss rod cover.
Burny Guitar Serial Number Fg Number
Burny/Fernandes Guitars:
Fernandes is the parent company that made most of the company's Fender replica guitars under its own Fernandes name.
Burny is the brand name or division that focused on the making of Gibson replica guitars. Fernandes/Burny first started
cloning Fender and Gibson guitars in the 1970s and continued thorugh the mid-1980's, up until Fender and Gibson
threatened to sue them for copyright/trademark infringement. At that point, Burny/Fernandes changed their truss rod
cover shape and other small details to appease both Fender and Gibson. For their Fender copies, they were forced
to change their headstock shape completely.
The rare old Fender and Gibson 'lawsuit' replicas that can be found are extremely accurate in their attention to detail that
the original Fender and Gibsons had. The guitars were called the 'Revival' series, as they were essentially reviving the old
classic Fenders and Gibsons. The headstock logos were dead ringers from 15 feet away. On the Revival Stratocaster,
the saddles were stamped like Fenders, except bore the F.S.R.G. stamp (Fernandes Sound and Research Group) instead
of the FENDER stamp. Other details were uncanny, too, in their replication of the Fender Strat. The Tele was just as
with RLG and then a number, designating the price at which it was to list at, similar to other Japanese brands from the
same era . Most Japanese guitar manufacturers used the model number to reflect the list price of the guitar. The Burny
Super Grade Les Pauls have been reported by many recording and gigging professionals as 'the best' clone of the
original 50's and 60's Les Pauls. They say the feel of the neck is identical and especially enjoy the tone of the pickups.
They were looking for stage replacements for their $30,000 Les Paul, and the Burny's seemed to be the answer.
The pickups Burny and Fernandes made for their Fender and Gibson clones are highly-regarded as some of the best
vintage replica pickups. Fernandes used L-5000, L-5000 Vintage II, and L-5001 single coil pickups in their Fender-style
guitars, while the Burny models were fitted with the now famous VH-1 pickups that have extraordinary tone.
The older Fernandes guitars do have serial numbers on occasion, and can be found on the neck plates of the Revival
series Stratocasters and Telecasters, bbut otherwise, Burny and Fernandes didn't often use serial numbers. Dating a
Burny or Fernandes can be loosely done by looking at the truss rod cover. The Gibson bell-shaped covers are found on
1970's to early 1980's models. The bell-shape cover with a thin white band and ridges sticking out from the side are found
on mid-1980s to early 1990's models. These old 'lawsuit' style models are very rare to find nowadays, and are highly
