Travis Bean :: TB2000 Bass
TB2000 was the standard bass. Made with Koa wood bodies. The basses have bright woody tone, that seem to cut through the mix easily. There were special models of these made, including short scale necks and fretless versions. 1020 TB2000 were produced.
Style of Music: Rock, Hard Rock, Metal, Alternative.
Comments: I've got #667. I got this from a store called Thoroughbread Music in Tampa, FL. It was originaly a loaner while they replaced my pickups in my other bass. Liked it so much I told them to keep my other bass and I kept this one. I ran it over with my car once outside of its case. It broke the volume, pickup switch, and tone nobs off. I picked it up out of the dirt and played a gig with it, no problems. i had a flat on one of the tires that ran it over the next day. True story. No other bass has the tonal complexities of this instrument. I recently had the fretboard glued back down and the frets redone and am falling in love with it all over again.
Comments: i got a good deal. this bass is awesome (as though you didn't know). solid as a rock and pretty too! factory black finish. the pot metal holding the tuner was broken on the D string machine head, so i had to order a replacement (schaller M4S, they still make them, thank god) but that wasnt a quality issue, it was a "got dropped by someone prior to me purchasing it" issue.
Comments: After purchasing this bass i sold my other basses. Nothing comes close to matching the incredible tone and meanness you get from this bass. For some reason it is a little lighter than my TB1000S. I refuse to play anything other than a Travis Bean Bass.
