Unknown Thunderbird

[Essential Tension]

Any suggestions on what this might be?

Firebird Bass, No Brand Setneck, Middle scale Very COOL

He knows it was made in 1999-2000, and that the electronics are original, but doesn't know the manufacturer?  Seems to me he should know that in order to know the rest.   Hopefully, someone will recognize the stamp on the pickguard.
It looks pretty nice, though.

Love the bird logo.

Never seen one like that before.  It speaks loudly to the short/med-scale freak in me!  A mini-bird - or ThunderBudgie!   

[Dave W]

That is one odd bird logo. And an even odder control cavity.

I also find it hard to believe that the seller doesn't know what brand it is.

 Interesting....................Fishy, but interesting.

I would say a Samick
Samick routes under the bridge and the bridge has very high saddles

I have a Samick EB-2 and the photos are exactly the same bridge

Thanks

There's a review of a Samick Firebird guitar on Harmony Central that mentions an eagle logo on the pickguard. Is that thing an eagle? Looks more like The Famous Grouse.

He'll be lucky to sell it at a starting bid of 100 pounds + 60 shipping.

[PhilT]

I stand corrected. There's a bid. I thought the starting price was too high for a ho.

[Dave W]

Looks more like a constipated grouse.

If it's Samick I'm pretty sure that rules out Japan. Which may be why he's not disclosing it, since a Japanese 'bird would probably fetch more.

That thing is not even mahogany - pah!
