This is a KB Mini-Beelze with built in amp. From a japanese company called Killer. I think this is a discontinued model.

Where can I buy one?
Looks like they'd sell at least three birds if we can only find 'em!
I'll keep looking.
From what I read, this mini bird was offer by Samick in Japan in the early 90s. Only way to find them know is by searching through japanese auction websites.
I did a quick search with google japan and found only one on japanese yahoo auctions, but that was already sold for 15.500 yen. I think that is about a little less than 190 us dollars.
I'd like one too.
But can't find any
Would a mandobird with thick strings work, perhaps?

I don't think so, Mandos are 18"-20" scale or something, thats too short. But aren't they cool? :D
Too short for what?
You shouldn't ask a Greek that sort of question... :o
Its too short even for a mini guitard I mean! :P But that is not gonna stop a crazy-ass modder. And I don't mean you, Kenny. :P :P
I'll have to post a picture of my Savoy bass. It's a close cousin. I think the headstock ends when the fret nut was on my Newport.
Replace the neck on that little mando and voila. Mini t-bird!
20" is way too short for bass tuning, really. I had a bass that had 24" or something and no matter how you intonated it and what strings you used, in a bass octave tuning you had all these weird ghost notes and freak harmonics on the E and A string. Unbearable if you played it unplugged .

It's not the length that matters. Didn't your daddy tell you that?
It's what you do with it, that's what matters ;D
