Can anyone confirm this obscure 70s bass?

This one took some digging, and it's my first-ever guitar spotting here on EB, so:

Did I get this one right?

looks like an alembic or a Japanese copy :-) Matsumoku made basses like this for various brands like Aria, Greco etc...

I started by searching for series 1 Alembics and 70s MIJ knockoffs of alembics like the Kasuga Scorpion, but none had the double split-coil pickups, exact body and headstock shape, and maple fretboard that this SD Curlee had.

Those Matsumoku Alembic clones with the double p-bass pickups are close though. Nice.

I think you're right, you did more research than me.... I did NONE and just combed my memory :-)

Thanks Jim! The next time someone really wants to know what bass was used to record "Cavern", AKA the source of the famous "White Lines" bass line, Google will finally have someplace to take them. This makes me happy.
