cello...with bass tuners?
i know, keep it to the basses...i get it. however, i've recently come across this cello with bass tuners on it and i've never seen anything like it before. basically i'm hoping that somebody here could help me put a date on this instrument. it is a fully carved cello, with lots of repairs. it has an ebonized maple fingerboard. no date/label that i can see. PLEASE HELP!

I was hoping that someone would prove to know something about cellos and when - if ever - using hat peg tuners was common. I also should have mentioned that the pics I attached were the tuners in question.
As a side note, why is the culture here so virulent?

I can't speak for anyone else, but to me a post with a couple of blurry cellphone photos asking for someone to "date" an instrument might as well say "I found this old looking thing at a garage sale, please tell me that it is old and worth a lot of money". |

Here you go, everyone! Enjoy!
By the way, thomas - is that your GSD in your profile pic? Just adopted a puppy a few months ago myself!

The instrument has a few open seams and was unfortunately repaired 'in house' by some previous owner!
