It represents the pinnacle of Jim Burns’ original company before its sale to the Baldwin Piano and Organ Company in September 1965. The model was designed in 1963 by Jim Burns in close collaboration with Hank Marvin and Bruce Welch of The Shadows to replace their Fender Stratocasters. The bridge plate engraving, \"Designed and handcrafted for Hank Marvin by Burns\", is a hallmark of the earliest production runs. The Rez-O-Matik pickups were specifically engineered to provide the \"nasal\" and \"mellow\" tone heard on classic Shadows recordings. These original British-made Marvins are exceptionally rare, with total production of the 1964–1965 original run estimated at only about 350 instruments. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU PURCHASES ARE DELIVERED WITH TAXES AND DUTIES PAID\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll purchases include EU taxes\/duties paid, i.e., nothing further is due on receipt of goods to any EU state.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY BUY FROM US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe are one of the world's leading specialists in used and vintage gear with over 30 years of experience.
