It's been 40-42 years since I played next to it so forgive me for my memory lapse if any.. lol

and with outer linings; ..also. Pauls's Lady is looking a bit downwards. The other bass is looking outwards!

yes of course, I didn't mean THAT bass to be Paul's one. They just look similar to me, with the lady on top, and both gamba shaped. I'd be surprised to discover the bass you are presenting is a certified English one...just looks like a nice German factory bass (like P.C.'s bass to be honest...)...
