Double Bass 1965 Stradivori copy by Universal

I'm trying to find out information on bass. It is a carved top. I can't find much about this model. If anyone has any information, I would be grateful.

More information required. FMI used to sell cheap Chinese basses branded Universal, which isn't promising.

I saw a FMI video. I agree, not promising. This example is from 1965.

Furthermore, Stradivari never made a bass, as far as I know. (but I may be wrong of course)

You're not wrong, Francois. Tony made zero basses and only a handful of cellos. Here's the one I saw in Manhattan a few weeks ago.
