I knew the one from Jules' site, but not the other. Interesting, thanks!

Direct quote from JAE in Bass Culture opposite the picture of the RD prototype:

"The result of a joint venture by Gibson and Roger Moog to produce the 'John Entwistle Bass'.  Unfortunately I didn't like it but it was released as the RD Artist Bass"

You would think they'd have gotten more input from him on the prototype or just said, "What do you want?" and just built it.

...with a Pbass width neck and a properly positioned original style bridge.  The width of the neck was his only complaint with the TBird besides the misplaced bridge.
