Help identify my Bass guitar

[Dirteesantos]

I recently bought this bass guitar from a friend for $40, he didn't know much about it except that he got it from a pawn shop.
I want to know any info anyone has on it.

All the labels appear to be stick-ons and therefore are useless as identifiers. Can't tell how the neck attaches. Can we get some photos of the rear of the bass?

This is the only instrument-related thing I could find in relation to "Pai Wei":

Looks like you got yourself a Snail bass, buddy!

Thank you, I'm looking for a little more info, but this helps.

A bit of a zombie thread, but here's one that's up on ShopGoodwill. Interesting look for a j-bass clone, but it's plywood.

The parts appear pretty good. Neck is that 'mother of packing crate' popular in older Japanese basses. Not sure what it is, but if it rocks, you got a good bass.
