The Burns Tri-Sonic is a single-coil electric guitar pickup, with ceramic magnets and a chrome cover. The advantage of the Tri-Sonic pickup is that it produces a richer harmonic sound than pickups wound in the traditional manner. Tri-Sonics are wider than the more popular single-coiled pickups, such as used by Fender. Many guitarists have guitar pickups replaced with Tri-sonics to change the sound of the guitar. When replacing traditional single-coils with Tri-Sonics more involved amendments to the guitar may be required, such as routing the body or altering the mounting mechanism.

“So cold, so icy that one burns one’s fingers on him! Every hand that touches him pulls away in fright!—And for that very reason, some take him to be glowing hot.”
