  Google says it is a Höfner 500/8BZ. http://www.vintageguitarandbass.com/hofner/catalogues/1967_3.php
  

  You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.

  Thanks. I thought the fretboard inlays looked Hofnerish but I don't recall a Hofner with such a control panel layout. It has an onboard fuzz circuit apparently, v cool.

  That extra weight in the lower bout probably reduces neck dive.
