Hi,

tbGuitars suggested this site to me, and I hope to be able to do a review of my Travis Bean.

My Bean is a 1976 TB1000A Artist, serial 1046.

I was given it by my dad in 1978. It had come over to the UK and then used by the distributors salesman as a demo to take around the shops, and he bought it new, but ex demo.

It is all original except for the toggle tip, and one bridge saddle screw. It also has it's original hard case.

I have gigged this guitar hundreds of times, so she is well used and worn, a real relic!

I also think the wood patterning is one of the nicest I have seen on a Bean.

Heres some pics:
