Does anyone know what bass it is in this Christmas classic?

Thanks for such a quick response. That's some mod to a Jazz! Great link - so it was Roy Wood's bass. Interesting concept the way the pickups are sited to possibly give deep lows and twangy highs.

I would never have guessed it was originally a Jazz looking at the pickups and controls.
