Another possible (french?) purchase

[Shawn Charniga]

Good morning,

I've registered as a member expressly because I recently bought a very similar bass -- same varnish, same slender C-bouts, same FF-holes, same contour at the bottom back of the pegbox. My bass is also unlabeled.

The only difference I can see is that my bass has two-on-a-plate machines, rather than the individual machines on the bass Mr. Larouche posted.

If appropriate, I would be happy to start my own thread with measurements and (terrible) photos.

Mr. Smith, may I ask you to elaborate on your theory this is a Hungarian bass? I frankly have no idea what it is, but it seems to bear little resemblance to basses described as Hungarian by Nahrmann and others.

Many thanks in advance, and sorry for butting into someone else's thread.
