If I had to explain the unexplainable, starting from ignorance, I'd guess that someone was experimenting with alternative tailpieces. That cover hides the bridge and tailpiece so maybe someone wanted to preserve a visual. If it is a short scale bass then it might be part of a scheme to use long scale strings.
