So, the terms Bohemian, German, French, etc. really are used to define style, and not necessarily the actual location of manufacture? If my bass actually was made in Bohemia, as the label asserts, then it would be more accurately described as a German shop style bass made in Bohemia. Maybe Wilfer or another German maker had a shop in Bohemia.
