Congrats, a very interesting bass mate.
It looks to be made between 1967 (at the earliest) & 1970. I'm assuming that the tuners are encased and not open gear tuners?
I remember seeing this bass at Musicworks in Greenlane early 2000s and was aware of the Ben Shepherd connection at the time. The damage had already been done at that time by Ben.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

No. It's actually on loan to a friend of mine for a recording project.
