Can you see all the screw holes in the pictures above? I think that with the current Gears being on the Bass for most of its life and the varnish touch up that the current color/oxidation looks fairly even now. Those plates take about 10 screws and that's how many filled holes I count each side. If the Plates were only on the Bass for about 20 years and the current Gears for 80 years I don't think there would be much difference in the color. The other way around? Yes, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
