The Restorer seems to believe it is as well as all the others that have seen it. Still, no guarantee but it does fit the Bass well. It was a 3-string Scroll and was converted a long time ago from the similar but not identical 4th Gear used.
I will try and find out where the Bass was before 2003/4, the completion date of the restoration being 2004.
