Can anyone ID this EUB?

Nifty looking design... A headless, skeletal (topless, bottomless) EUB. Made somewhere in Latin America?

That thing is cool! Maybe you could find someone who speaks Spanish (easy in California- maybe not in Sweden) & translate an email for you.

It's hard to tell from the pics, but it might be from an English company called Bassix

This is like Polish eBay. A Polish friend of mine translated the text. The bass has a 101 cm scale (regular 3/4) and is made by a Cuban luthier. The bridge/pickup assembly looks like itīs been ripped from an old Ampeg, or made to look similar. Asking price is 3,000 szloty, i.e. 1,000 US dollars.
