Hello All

Thought this would be a good place to post this question. On the Travis Bean forum there is a thread pointing out a Travis Bean Bass Bridge for sale on eBay. It was followed up that this was possibly a Kramer Bass Bridge and not a Bean.

I do not own any Bean Basses, so could not verify this 100%, but found a pic of a 300 range TB2000 bass with a close up of the bridge, and that bridge does not match the bridge on eBay.

I was wondering if any Kramer guys here can verify that it is a Kramer, or other TB2000 owners can verify this is a variant style bridge for this bass.

Here is the link to the thread at TravisBeanGuitars.com

Thanks in advance!

It's the same as on these two Kramers:

http://cgi.ebay.com/KRAME.....41438QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I believe they were standard bridges made by Schaller in Germany.

That bridge is a top-loader (look at the indents to hold the ball ends of the strings). I'm saying is a Kramer bridge.

yea, i'm gonna have to agree that it's a kramer. a rusted out kramer at that. it doesn't really look like any of the bean bass bridges i've seen in person or in pictures.
