Need help identifying Vintage Epiphone Bass

Hello - I just acquired this Epiphone Bass from a local musicstore. It appears to be from the 70's' date=' but I have no idea what model it is. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks!!

Here is a photo:

It looks like the pickups were changed out (or could just be a later version) but it's a mid/late 70's Matsumoku-made (Japanese) Epiphone ET-285.

Thank you so much Iconoclast. I posted this on another bass forum, and they thought it was either a Coronet bass or a Wilshire bass. It appears that you are the most knowledgable person, though, so I will assume you are right. I appreciate your time and expertise. Best wishes.
