Ironically i just bought a Burns Batwing based on the Marquee, and i own a numbr of Strats and variants, but it has a great tremolo design on it, much lighter and easier than the Strat version, called a knife edge. playing the Deerhunter with the violin technique rolling the volume is easier on a strat, so i am going to modify my Burns to put the volume closer to the pickups and add some electronics. Jim Burns , genius, beautiful guitars, and British, Shadows, genius, love em all

The original is by Burt Weedon, but the first recorded version was The Shadows in 1960. The Arrows didn't do it until 1965 :)

Also, Apache, wasen't recorded on a Fender Strat as cliff Richard, who bought Hank's original Fender for him didn't get it until after Apache had been released. Bruce Welsh mentions this on one of the many interviews that have been recorded since then.

Just to clarify, The Shadows approached British guitar maker, Jim Burns, in 1963/64 and asked him if he could build them a guitar that would stop in tune. Early Fender Strats suffered from not staying in tune and had intonation issues. Hank & Jim Burns designed the now famous, Burns Marvin guitar, which they played up until 1970. Baldwin, an american guitar maker bought out Burns London in 1965, so all burns guitars from this period were rebranded, Baldwin Burns or just Baldwin.
