I recently bought this bass.  It appears to be an old Passion or Arpege.  Seems to have features of each.  It's lined from the factory (not a defret) and has brass between the fingerboard and neck.  It has a truss.  Wonderful bass, but I'm not sure what model it is and when it was made.  Thanks

It is a collector, one of the very first Passion bass. The two pickups are separated, which is very rare and a sign of the few first one ever made.It looks like it is in good condition...
