A guy is selling this here:

Epiphone, claims it's from the 70's. Never seen this model. And no price, he's selling it to the highest bidder.

It looks as if it's only 27" or so scale. If it's 30" that's a wide looking neck.

Just found a finished Ebay auction. The seller lists it as a 30.5" scale bass.
