I hesitate to say "same bass as" Morelli, but both instruments were made in the same shop in Germany, exported to the US and then stamped by different importers as either "Morelli" or "GA Pfretzschner".

You can see that discussed here:

This particular bass spent some of its life in the Seattle school district and has it's share of scratches and even some light graffiti here and there. Overall I think it looks great, has character, looks like a good old bass.
