Looks all wrong.

If it's genuine, it must have been the first one they made, before they
made them look like Gibsons.

Headstock shape wrong, logo wrong, body shape wrong, and so on.

Perhaps it was a one-off made for Peter Green. :)

No, not a Burny. They have this air of quality about them, even when beaten up. I don't recall them ever doing a bolt neck. Their guitars were always very detailed copies of the originals, even going so far as to use a model name, super grade, that was in a script.. The carve on this one is way over the top, Burny never did that. I've owned a few, and always regretted I sold them when they were gone. One, I still own, a burny korina custom, that I gave to my son who loves it dearly. Not a single sticker on it anywhere. :) Burny Les Paul Korina Custom

Yes, that looks like an SG - but the OP's guitar post was about one of those bolt-on neck models that was more Mosrite than SG!.

It certainly has a serious German Carve.
