🔥 Vintage Tone Monster Alert: 1990 Burny “The Revival” RLG-70 ‘59 Model in Rare Cherry Old Sunburst (COS) – Ready to Rock! 🔥
Imagine cradling a piece of pure Japanese guitar royalty that looks, feels, and sounds like it just walked off the 1959 Gibson workbench… but it’s a 1990 Burny “The Revival” Super Grade RLG-70 that’s been professionally dialed in to perfection. This isn’t some dusty relic — this is the one you’ll actually play every single day.
The finish? Stunning Cherry Old Sunburst (COS) — that deep, rich, “aged-to-perfection” burst with cherry-red centers melting into amber edges. The bookmatched flame maple top glows like liquid fire under stage lights, showing insane 3D figuring and chatoyancy that makes lesser sunbursts look flat. Every curve, every grain line screams vintage ‘59 magic, but in showroom-excellent condition with zero checking, fading, or heavy wear. It still turns heads and starts conversations before you even plug in. It has some milkiness to the finish on the face of the headstock and a tiny nick on the back,(see pics) but super clean for its age.
Built like a tank, plays like a dream:
- Carved flame maple top on a resonant 3-piece mahogany body (classic ‘59 weight and balance — right around 8.5 lbs of pure sustain machine)
- Tapered mahogany neck with that perfect ‘59 carve — comfortable, fast, and broken-in from day one
- Bound ULTRA dark rosewood fingerboard, 22 medium-jumbo frets, spot-on 12” radius
- Original VH-1 humbuckers (the legendary Burny/ Fernandes PAF clones that tone hounds lose sleep over) — creamy, articulate, harmonically rich, with just the right amount of bite and air. Neck position sings like buttery blues, bridge cuts like a chainsaw on overdrive.
This guitar has been professionally set up and dialed in by a master tech specifically for optimal tone and playability: super-low, buzz-free action, perfect neck relief, flawless intonation, and fresh strings. It rings forever, stays in tune, and feels alive in your hands — whether you’re laying down smoky blues bends, massive classic rock riffs, or soaring leads that sustain for days. Plug it into anything from a cranked Plexi to a modern high-gain rig and it just sings.
Excellent condition throughout — no cracks, no major dings, original hardware shines, pots are smooth, and everything functions like new. It’s been under the bed kept and is ready for its next 30+ years of gigging glory.
If you’ve been hunting for that perfect ‘59 burst that actually plays like a modern guitar without the vintage price tag or maintenance headaches… your search ends here.
Serious players and collectors — this one won’t last.
Don’t let this beauty become someone else’s “I should have bought that” story.
Grab your piece of Burny history today and start making your own legends tomorrow! 🎸✨
It has just been professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability. It has low action with no buzzing or dead spots and is an absolute joy to play. It has been deep cleaned and detailed. All guitars will arrive looking and playing great. The frets have been leveled / dressed / polished and the fingerboard was cleaned. (Unfinished Rosewood and Ebony boards get treated with Fret Doctor - a proprietary all natural oil that is the best on the market) It has brand new strings, the action was adjusted, the intonation is spot on and it plays excellent. All the electronics work flawlessly.

Terms For Returns & Re-Stocking Fee’s
We recognize and accept a 7 day return policy as per Reverb guidelines, BUT intentions of the return must be communicated in writing within 3 day of receiving the guitar as indicated by the tracking. Unless the guitar is not as described, ORIGINAL & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. There is a 15% Re-stocking fee for ALL guitars that are returned for ANY reason outside of damage from shipping or it arrives significantly not as described. Please note that we record demo videos to make sure our guitars go out exactly as we describe them with zero issues. We understand that feeling comfortable is vital to the purchase of a guitar/bass so in any case, additional measurements or in hand descriptions are available prior to purchase/shipping. Thats said, guitars travel a great distance some times and in transit things can happen. Also guitars acclimate to new environments and this can cause a need for a new set up or minor adjustment. It is acceptable and normal if there is for instance a tiny bit of buzzing or the need to adjust a truss rod. We are in south Florida and if you are in a colder or less humid environment it is almost to be expected. Please read our feedback and see what our customers say. The guitar MUST BE RETURNED IN THE EXACT CONDITION it was advertised/received or it is subject to additional costs & or repair fees. We are not a big chain shop, I hope you understand. If you are uncomfortable with these terms please do not purchase. There are plenty big chain shops that can absorb free trials and shipping.
