TheTravis Bean TB500 guitar Jerry Garcia played regularly during the period many Dead Heads consider the group's golden era of live performances goes up for auction on December 6 in Beverly Hills. Juliens will take bids on the guitar Garcia used while recording Terrapin Station and during upwards of 90 concerts in the mid-late 1970's and  expects the instrument to bring in a top bid between $150,000 and $200,000. Other rare collectibles up for bidding during the event include a Hofner bass custom made for Paul McCartney, a 1950's Telecaster played by Keith Richards, a Kramer Ferrington guitar once owned by Mick Jagger and hand written lyrics from Bob Dylan's Mr. Tambourine Man and George Harrison's Isn't It A Pity.
