There's a man round your way selling a bean guitar for £660. I was thinking about it, but i won't be able to get a shot before purchase. Interested?
im not danjou unfortunatly but i would be interested in buying this if he doesnt want it. i live in watford.
also theres a couple of ovation ultra gp's up at the moment - if you know about these guitars and werent sure they are as good as they make out let me tell you i have one and it is unbelievable the tone you get out of it. better than any les paul ive ever played. thickest warmest tone this side of 59 les paul.
a sense of history

14I bought a TB500 a few years back pretty banged up for $325. Fixed it up real nice, decided I hated it, and sold it for $950 to a guy who plays it every day.

15i just found this thread so pardon me for being a whistle dick so late in the game...
i think bean made 6 of these type artists. the necks were not channeled and the headstocks had a very light angle to them hence the weird ass string tree. the pus where fenders that they rewound. they where all hand made. pretty cool and its up for sale again on ebay. too rich for my blood though. also the way the neck inserts into the body is a bit different too, its has a lip that goes all the way around. whatever im a geek.
