For sale is a 1978 Travis Bean TB-1000A Artist Koa with a non-original gig-bag. This guitar is in good condition and in perfect working order. There are some scratches, dings, finish checking throughout, and some wear on the back. The neck suffered from an excess of back-bow. The board was removed from the neck and the neck straightened out to remedy this issue. The neck now holds straight with optimal relief. The frets have been freshly dressed so there is no wear to the frets. The neck now plays amazing. Overall, I would rate the condition, a solid 8 out of 10. The nut, knobs and electronics have been replaced. Everything else on the guitar including the pickups is original. There are no cracks, repairs, or issues. Nut Width: 1.51. 1st Fret: 0.87. 12th Fret: 0.99. Pickups: Original Travis Bean engraved humbuckers. All of our instruments are thoroughly gone over and set up by our luthier.

Vintage 1976 Travis Bean TB-1000A Chrome Plated Refinish Looks like Veleno aluminum guitar. This guitar refinished to Chrome Plating in the past. This is not Paint Finish. Refinish seems to be professional work. Generally, guitar repair shop can not work chrome plated finish. The cost for chrome plated finish work will be very expensive. So, I think this guitar is only one on the world. But, it gets nice antique feel stain with age. CTS pots code are 13776xxx. 001 mF Orange Drop capacitors for high pass. It is probably original spec. Medium jumbo profile frets has typical play wear. Non-Original hardshell case include. I do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as “gifts” -US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
