    Burns Sonic

    When I was a teenager in the 60s, I had a little 4-piece cover band doing Shadows, Beatles, Stones and other artists' material. I had a Burns Sonic, which my father bought second-hand. Boy, do I wish I had held on to it.

    If you want one today, it'll cost you £400+ on E-Bay. I guess it's the Brian May/trisonic pick-ups connection that does it.

     I've made a few half-hearted bids but hav'nt really pushed the boat out ; maybe next year.

    Success!
    Won auction on ebay - Richard, if you're reading this, I'm feeling really guilty about all these references to ebay.
    Will post new photo in due course.

    This is photo of MY Sonic recently acquired on ebay (what can I say...maybe I'm addicted).
    It's in fantastic condition and plays like it should.
    Can't say that it brings back memories - it was so long ago - but I don't regret buying it.
