Ural 510 L & G neck's

When checking out my Sverdlovsk Ural 510 bass's for repair ( loose neck bolts,that's why it's screw holes are filled with tiny wood picks )I noticed that my 510L 403 seems different to my 510G 427 .The 510L is the most common known with only one treble bout while the 510G has the same body as the Ural guitar.
When comparing the two necks I saw that the 510G art.427 has a slightly different neck , with an trussrod end that can't be smoothly regulated as the 510L because the regulating end sits way in the neck while the L has an outside regulator.
The L has a sn 63620 while the G has a sn 15125 .
Can it be that the first 510's had such a "G" neck and that later on an "easier"-L neck was used ?...or did the L & G's had different sn ranges and therefor different neck's ?

Both models basses Urals had a common numbering. The first produced around 20-with-something thousands bass guitars were Model 510-G, and after they made 510-L. Total produced about 66,000 Ural basses.

However, my data about numbering of these instruments may not be 100% correct. These are based only on consideration of photos of several dozen guitars from Ural factory having neckplates with s/n's.
