That scroll and maybe the varnish remind a Romanian factory bass I used to have; I forget for sure when it was made though. Probably in the mid Seventies.

Sorry Dan, I honestly don't remember; all I do know is that it was Romanian and a pretty ordinary factory bass. I've seen a few others like it around; I'll have a look and see if I can find one. It's probably not even relevant though; I just saw that you said "Romanian" in the first post and noted that the scroll looked familiar.
