surfpup Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Looks like the TB1000 or 1000A (artist). He's making them again - for about $7500 a new one can be yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyK Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 Anybody ever played one? The only other guy I've seen playing one is Glenn Kaiser - back in about 1980 with Resurrection Band (captured in pics on the album Colours). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdgm Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Is it a Travis Bean?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6kRNwHZW5s They were damn hip weren't they? Have to admit I felt warm all over hearing this again. Looks like the TB1000 or 1000A (artist). He's making them again - for about $7500 a new one can be yours. Well...it's not quite the same. Travis Bean passed away in 2011. Originals (there are about 2177 TB1000s and 350 standards) still come up for a bit less. As heavy as an un-weight relieved LP with a flat fingerboard and the ali neck. Trendy in Europe on account of the guitarist in a band called Biffy Clyro plays one...apart from him, Stanley Jordan and Jerry Garcia used them. I know a guitarist in Sussex with a nice one.
