The pickguard says Baldwin but the three-piece pickguard design is the signature of Jim Burns of London. Although the Double Six model name might suggest a double-necked six-string, it does accurately describe the standard configuration of a 12-string guitar with six pairs of strings.

Not only does this model look like a 12-string version of the Burns Hank Marvin model, it was part of Marvin’s aresenal of instruments.

Baldwin’s connection with Burns of London provided some of the more memorable, if least successful, instruments from the two acquisitions (the other being Gretsch in 1967), and Baldwin stopped making Burns guitars in 1970.
