Hi Ken,
I've just emailed them to send me some pictures. They may be slightly embarrassing as I know that the top is now off and they are replacing the neck as it had been re-profiled rather strangely.
From what I can remember there were 2 labels on the inside of the bass when I saw it. I've asked for pictures of these too.
The fact he was mainly a viola maker is interesting as this bass is a violin shape and the varnish used is very golden.
I can't REALLY afford the instrument, but as I suspected if it is genuine it may be a fantastic investment.
