I'm pretty sure this is from the late 80's, as it has the Lightning bolt style headstock inlay and the late 80's truss rod cover. It has VH-1 Paf's in it, which i have been told sound pretty good!
Cool guitar, I have had two that were close to yours. The pickups are pretty mediocre, I kept the neck pickup in one but had to replace the bridge. If it is going to be your main LP you might want to start thinking about some new pickups.

Thanks for the info!
I'll probably grab a set of Suhr Aldrich's for it, as i had them in my 78 LP Custom and they sounded massive!

Well I got the Burny LP Custom and it is killer!! I'm amazed at how good it sounds/plays and also the overall quality of the guitar, considering the price of these on the used market
After a few tweaks and maybe new pickups, it would be right up there with a Gibson IMO. I could do with getting jumbo frets put on the guitar, as the original frets are smaller than i'm used to using. When i get some jumbo frets fitted, i'm sure it'll play like a dream!!
The pickups are PAF clones and they're nice for that old school LP sound. For my tastes, i like something with plenty of output and bite. So the stock PAF's are coming out, and Suhr Aldrich buckers are going in The guitar is extremely resonant, i would go as far as saying the guitar sounds every bit as good the 1978 Gibson LP Custom i had before.
The neck is definitely thinner than most Gibson LP Customs, i think it's roughly same size as a Gibson 60's neck. It's extremely comfortable to play on. If you're used to thinner necks from playing superstrats like i am, but you want to play a LP style guitar.. then these necks will take you very little time to get used to.
If you ever want a great Les Paul without spending a ton of cash, definitely check out these older Burny LPC's from the 80's! I'm pretty sure that i will end up buying another before long I have no more Gibson GAS now haha!
