Hank´s Burns 64 for sale? - thread closed

Postby Jörgen Emanuelsson » 16 Nov 2022, 19:21

Saw this on the site Vintage and rare. Always heard the guitar were stolen, also earlier topic in this forum was about that.
Suddenly both Hank and Bruce Burnsguitars are for sale.

Is this for real or is it bluff?

Hi!

I think you have to ask Denmark Street Guitars, UK, the seller.
Also strange, no pics for a guitar cost 42.838 GBP...

Have any Members or Guests actually been to this emporium in Denmark Street
and viewed these instruments physically?
Something just seems not right at all and the ownership of this company and those involved
throws some doubt on the whole issue?

If I still worked in London I’d pop in and have a look.

Is anyone able to do that?

Are these the same ones that Reverb advertised months ago? They promised pics but never posted any!

They still have what I think are the same guitars, but drastically reduced in price and no claims about previous ownership. Interestingly, 'Bruce's' guitar is still cheaper than Hank's!

I just had a thought, looking at the pictures. Would Hank, and particularly Bruce, have Hank's sig on there? Surely their guitars would have had the Burns signature.

Vintage and Rare were - in the days when I visited Denmark St. - a reputable, if expensive, firm. I have not been there for years, though.

As with all these vintage items, the phrase 'caveat emptor' comes to mind.

My 2p.

Reading the small print, Denmark St. Guitars are an amalgam of several shops. Not sure if they have any connection to Chris Trigg's V&R Guitars.
