I forgot the measur Rib depth but I'll do it today.
We have this problem with F#, when hit F# volume changes, and note is out off tune.We don't know what the problem is we changed sound post, strings, fingerboard , scale length.Maybe problem is about body dimensions?
I took a video when I hit F# you can hear our problem other note seems okay.

This is a very unusual Bass measurement wise if the numbers are correct!
A long body with a wide lower bout and a short string length. I would assume this bass to have a potentially deep sound as the lower bout seems so big in length and width but the shorter upper bout may be fighting the tone making it sound thinner. The center bout also seems to be on the wide side as well.
I would like to hear Arnold's opinions on this but before that happens I would ask that you measure once more to confirm the numbers as well as my inch conversions.
