I have to disagree with the no 8-string bass assertion:  Chris Squire of
Yes has used 8-strings on the last few tours (I can't vouch for what he
used during the 70's, though).

Sorry, but there is no such thing.  Also, the neck would be wide as hell
on a 8-string.  I have a 6-string bass, and the neck on that is twice
the
width of the one the guitarist is playing in the pic.
