Ever hear of a "Photogenic" Bass?

It's a brand name. I bought one on eBay a while back. It's a nice enough bass, very similar in appearance to some Ibanez models. The layout is standard P-bass clone shape, with a P-Bass pickup near the bolt-on neck and a J-bass pickup near the bridge.

I've tried many searches, and only found one match for "photogenic" and "bass" where "Photogenic" was a brand name and not a description of how good something looking in a picture. The website was in Japanese, so I'm guessing this might be a brand name that Ibanez uses for instruments sold in the Asian market but not here in the states.

Have any of you who live on the other side of the planet ever heard of the Photogenic brand?

I haven't heard anything on this side of the pond. I just did a brief search and didn't find anything either.
