Here for sale is a rare offering from master luthier Travis Bean. Featuring a polished aluminum neck and koa wood body, this guitar has incredible playability and a warm round tone. This is the Artist or "Uptown" model with carved Koa top with abalone block inlays. This has an exact reproduction bridge by Electrical Guitar Company as previous owner had installed a Fender-style bridge. Some Koa was inlayed into the top as part of the repair. Finish was completely worn off so the guitar has been sprayed with a clear coat as the originals were. The aluminum block on the back has been buffed to remove some previous scratched-in numbers and initials. All other hardware is original. One of 775 made.
