My fretless one was #573 and I bought it brand new in 1977, so that sounds right. I assume you've already found this: http://www.travisbeanguitars.com/index.php/ID/b0c3b03f61dd971d41519e82144bafea/fuseaction/database.detail.htm ?

I had not but that’s my Dad haha!

Helpfully T'internet says Mick's was #441 and we know he switched to playing Wals in 1981

 

Does this look familiar (albeit without frets)?

 

 

some further googling i found you can date them from the number..

That is older than Mick Karn's Travis isn't it?

If I’m honest I have no idea not sure what year this is.. further googling has shown me its 1976

Wow....something to pass down to the next generation for sure.

a million percent!

My dad recently passed away leaving a collection of guitars and basses, including a travis bean which I believe to be a tb2000 with the serial number 222… it is in immaculate condition and would just like any info on it and a rough price check as from my research they vary quite alot. Funnily enough there is a post from 2017 in which someone talks about owning this one? 

Not looking to sell as the collection has sentimental value.

Thanks in advance!
