Hello everyone, 

I'm looking to identity a model number or general info of this Framus stand up bass. It looks to me to be a 3/4 size, hand carved (not plywood) double bass. I'm assuming from my research it's a rosewood fingerboard? Maybe ebony? Any and all info on this beautiful new additon to my collection would be helpful.

I think that might be a plywood top, likely meaning the rest of the bass is plywood too. I can’t see the distinctive spruce grain you’d expect to see on a carved top. Nothing wrong with a good ply though!

Fingerboard most likely ebony, yes, and likewise for the tailpiece.

Looks decently set up - enjoy playing it!
