This is a procedural nomination per request by Dialectric after the page was speedily deleted. I am Neutral. FASTILY_sock^(TALK) 19:44, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Enough coverage e.g. Google Books results to establish notability.--Michig (talk) 20:22, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This article was speedily deleted as 'Unambiguous advertising or promotion'. I created the article several years ago. There has recently been a revert-war issue with commercial links, but the bulk of the content is and has been neutral and non-promotional, and the subject is notable.

Keep for a guitar maker, getting the likes of Slash, Jerry Garcia, and the Rolling Stones use your guitars is a pretty big deal. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 22:05, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. the only part of the article that establishes notability is the "guitar players" section which associates travis bean guitars with famous bands and people. the only reference i find on google which supports the claims is the website for travis bean guitars itself. but this seems irrelevant as most people would like to keep the page. cheers WookieInHeat (talk) 22:48, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

changed my mind, found the google books entries for travis bean. maybe the article creator would like to insert some references? WookieInHeat (talk) 22:53, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The guitar is used by a large number of notable artists, so I'd suggest is notable enough to be kept. Certainly needs work though. hellboy (talk) 13:56, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
