Another thing to note about older german 5 string basses is that many of them in the area of Vienna would have been used in viennese tuning (FADF#A). Whether the bass your friend has such as bass, who knows, but it's certainly food for thought.

more about viennese basses and the tuning here.

Cheers,

Alex
