Well, in this case I would say that there is no difference if you are talking about the border area of Shoenbach which was Czech on the map but very German by culture. After WWII, many of these makers moved over to W.Germany. This Bass you show is what I call Germanic. Regardless of what side of the street it was made I would call this a German Bass. Czech basses from the Prague region are very different and often similar in features to Viennese and Hungarian work. This bass looks totally German in nature to me.
