This is a Burns Baldwin 12 string guitar, produced in London around 1965, not a reissue.
It sounds awesome. Elvis played one of these!
Typical of many Burns guitars of this period there are many lacquer cracks and several dings, these are only cosmetic and add to the charm and character of the guitar. There is no structural damage at all, it comes with the ash-tray cover which I had professionally re-chromed and is often missing on these old ones.
This is a totally original, well used instrument. It lives in a very heavy aluminium flight case which is also included. One of the control knobs has a chip which I am trying to replace it and I will also get the guitar set up correctly for the new owner.
