It would be nice if you said what it is they are selling it as instead of keeping secrets.
This is the 3rd bass like this with that same carving in the back button which is distinctive. I think the other 2 were called French basses, maybe one was named and were dated to the 19th century, mid and latter part each.
What it actually is I don't know. They gears are not typical French but French-like, more so than German. And yes, the pics are not great but there is a possibility that this is German, but one of the nicer ones made to look French.
Only one of them did I see in person and I am no closer now to naming it as I was then.
So, what is it selling as? Measurements might be helpful as well, in inches.
