Probably because most people couldn't afford to own both.Mechanical Birds wrote: ↑Thu Apr 06, 2023 3:50 amThe few videos I’ve seen (how is there not a single video, that I’ve been able to find, comparing Kramers to Travis Beans directly by the way) sound like they’re full of treble. Excited to check that out myself.
Also I don't think they would sound anyway similar regardless, different neck constructions, totally different mounting systems for the necks, different pickups, different bridge types etc.

Idk I feel like converts are usually super into them. CME has that video showing them both but don’t do any band and forth or anything. I’ve always just wondered how big a chunk of salt to apply to the thing people always say about the TBs being way better. Obviously a subjective thing, but I’m still curious to hear the differencesX-Ray Spex wrote: ↑Thu Apr 06, 2023 11:02 pmProbably because most people couldn't afford to own both.Mechanical Birds wrote: ↑Thu Apr 06, 2023 3:50 amThe few videos I’ve seen (how is there not a single video, that I’ve been able to find, comparing Kramers to Travis Beans directly by the way) sound like they’re full of treble.

I am also a sucker for a slotted headstock, I remember Harvester also from Australia made a few aluminium necks based off of Wandre designs.madlovepickups wrote: ↑Sat Apr 08, 2023 3:59 pm@mickswoodandwire (on Instagram) is making some amazing aluminum neck guitars here in Australia.
