Proof i actually do live under a rock........
That's bad-azz! Too bad the relic market makes such a question common when a bass has your bass's appearance.

It’s also taken on a cremish minty tint- can’t see in pics- was Olympic white-

Lull doesn't do relics, as far as I know. If it's a Lull and it looks like that, it's been played a lot. Funny how it happens, though. I don't play 1500 shows per decade, but I play a reasonable amount. I haven't worn through the finish on anything except a Precision, and it was a RW to begin with. Somehow, that finish wore off in a couple years of playing a lot.
I never thought for a second that Lull was selling relic'ed basses. Anyone can relic an instrument though.
A bracelet or watch banging away at it would do that
When I was in high school we had “a computer” as in, there was a room which was completely filled with the computer. It used punch cards.

Rings would take finish off the neck.
Many sudden bursts of laughter when i watched this. They already think i'm nuts at work, but i may have pushed it over the edge now.

Herr Hornung, with a Ripper Prototype.
Many moons and posts ago, there was a Ripper prototype that was on Reverb that i had asked about here. This one is much cooler looking.

Finish is very thin on this one too- chips really easy the back of the bass is me being a little reckless with mic stands, other guitars (ooops sorry) and any drum stuff-
This is not intended to spark another 3 day conversation on the subject, but I wanted to share this discovery with some of you who've previously expressed interest.
This place is only about a mile away from me as the crow flies. I frequently drive by, but have never stopped in. My curiosity was just kicked in the arse though, after reading that their B.C. Light received a gold award in the "Light Lager Beer" category at the 2018 World Beer Cup (aka - 'the Beer Olympics')! 295 judges from 33 countries! Quite an accomplishment from a small-time small town independent! I don't spend much time with light brews, but an award like that, certainly makes me wonder about their other offerings

Good prices on the food menu. And who wouldn't like beers the names the likes of, Three Nancies and Penetrator. (especially with i a nice high alcohol content).
Did you indulge and imbibe?

I honestly have no idea of the exact total that BaCH produced. Simply because BaCH never used serial numbers.
They built them in small batches of roughly 25 or 30 per batch. Considering there were only six or seven batches in total, they can't have built that many as 400.
I saw B.C. Light and assumed it referred to British Columbia...This is not intended to spark another 3 day conversation on the subject, but I wanted to share this discovery with some of you who've previously expressed interest.
