Ja!

looks like a german bass with nice french tuners
I agree.. Commercial German/Czech style bass that had plate tuners before these Mirecourt gears which, might be older than the bass. Maybe, maybe not. The top looks to be possibly re-finished as it has a smeared look to it. That is usually a bad sign of something that was covered up for whatever reason or, just a bad choice to do so.

This is more of a German shop bass than a handmade one by an individual.
